Will Tell and the Big Bad Baron

Fringe favourites Theatre Fideri Fidera are back with a hilarious comic reimagining of the tale of Wilhelm Tell.

Don’t miss this mad-cap comic adventure which promises capers around a castle, medieval dancing, a damsel in distress, a ‘Punch and Judy’ show on the battlements, disguise, gender role reversal and a joust to the death with life-size kinetic puppets – all joined together with six amazing original songs. Inspired by the stories of Sir Lancelot and Robin Hood, feisty heroine Wilhelmina disguises herself as a knight and, with pots and pans for armour and her donkey Rosina for a steed, rides off to rescue her father from the wicked Baron’s deepest darkest dungeon.
