Hercules: Live at The Parks-thenon

'Hercules - Live at the Parks-thenon' is a laugh-out-loud retelling of Greek Mythology’s most famous hero, with a cheeky pantomime twist of course! When things don’t quite go to plan on stage, one unlikely “hero” finds themselves swept into a whirlwind of Gods, monsters, and karaoke.

With a bossy Stage Manager, some dazzling Muses, and an ever-dramatic King of the Underworld, audiences can expect laughs, catchy tunes, and plenty of chances to cheer, boo, and join in. Packed with heart, chaos, and a classic Greek Chorus, this is a family adventure where being a hero means a whole lot more than just having big muscles.

Prepare to be a-MUSE-d!
