Master storytellers Hugh Lupton and Nick Hennessy invite eager listeners to gather for a narrative adventure that delves into tales of rebellion and the fight for justice. The pair journey back into the leafy past to recount stories of dissent — from Robin Hood and his band of merry men to the revolutionary deeds of Thomas Paine and his pioneering Rights of Man. Lupton and Hennessy's performance, embellished with the odd song and recital, reignites England's lost oral-history tradition with some classic tales from our unruly past.
