Canterbury
Synopsis:
Always proud to present unabashed puppet shows for DC audiences, Pointless opens its 2012-2013 season with an original adaptation of Geoffrey Chaucer's the Canterbury Tales. Told through the eyes of erratic and animated medieval drunkard, the tales are a unique opportunity for storytelling. they combine messages of love, sex, honor and religion told from various socio-economic status and moral drive. With a different playwright for each of the seven narrators, the show is brought to life on stage through its found-object inspired eccentric puppetry and ye olde bar banter.
