Our brand new show for 2026

The Story of Bath Abbey

The ‘lost’ stories of Bath Abbey have been discovered, unleashed from the depths of the Abbey!

Join the Natural Theatre Company as we meet iconic characters, see strange stories and enjoy a celebration of Bath’s beautiful church…. and all with just a little bit of nonsense thrown in.  We will meet saints and sinners, royals and rogues… in this charmingly informative show that takes you on a theatrical journey through the nooks and crannies of the Abbey, as stories unfold all around you.

Travel through time with us as we bring to life all the best bits of Bath’s history in a mash-up that will bring a smile to everyone’s faces!

This was a special commission from Bath Abbey for spring 2026.

Ran at Covent Garden’s Transport Museum until January 2025.

For many of us, the London Underground is purely functional. But to Harry Beck, this web of geography became an obsession – a fascination with the creation of the perfect Tube map. How did Beck create the iconic diagrammatic diagram of today, and at what cost? To understand that, you need to meet Harry and his wife Nora.

Take a glimpse inside a journey of passion, a wife’s dedication and the living, breathing network of tunnels and train tracks in our capital. Embrace your inner transport enthusiast through a mash up of real-life accounts, uncovered anecdotes and seemingly unconnected facts (with a slight peppering of fictitious characters).

The Truth About Harry Beck originally appeared at The Ustinov Studio at Theatre Royal Bath and transferred to The Cubic Theatre in Covent Garden at The London Transport Museum.

Wandering Immersive show.  Available again from 2027.

Shakespeare Begins takes you and your audiences on a theatrical journey in which a lost Shakespeare play comes to life around you, performed by that fine company of players at The Natural Theatre Company.

There are always rumours of Shakespeare’s early ‘lost’ plays, but we have unearthed the first draft and only known copy of his wonderful comedy entitled The Moor The Merrier.

This walkabout show is a hilarious mash-up of the best bits of Shakespeare, ‘repurposing’ extracts from Romeo and Juliet, As You Like It, Macbeth and more, to create a brand-new play. Using our unique style of walkabout comedy performance, our actors include the audience in the action by interacting with them as the characters. They improvise conversations in flawless Shakespearian language!

Shakespeare Begins has performed on the SS Great Britain in Bristol, on the streets of Bath & Sutton Coldfield, and most recently in the Birmingham Bullring shopping centre.

Running time: 1hr
Age:  12 +
Performs in towns and city centres, parks and historic houses.
Available to book for your festival, site or event.

Wandering Immersive show that has toured throughout 2025 including Jane Austen Festival Bath, Hat Fair Winchester & Chatsworth House.

This hilarious immersive walking show is a wonderfully irreverent tribute to Jane Austen.

Lost & Found previously appeared in Bath in 2023, 2024 and 2025. Its hugely successful predecessor Austen: Undone appeared in Bath, Winchester, Jersey & Wiltshire between 2015 and 2022.

Running time: 1hr

* * * * *  “Sheer joy, energy and fun… should be on prescription for lifting the soul” – Bath Echo

Behold; the true history of Bath! Behind its beautiful façade, Bath is hiding a past that is riddled with tales of debauchery, villainy and depravity. Let us take you on a voyage through Bath’s murkier waters in this hilarious hour-long show, throwing light on the less virtuous aspects of the city’s history…

Meet long-gone historical figures, learn bizarre facts about Bath, and witness plenty of silliness in this riotous journey through time.

Dirty Bath has performed for two runs at The Rondo Theatre and also in the Clore Learning Centre at The Roman Baths.

Running time: 1hr
Age:  12 +
Performs in venues and large enough rooms!

****** “A touching Christmas show for all the family.” – Bath Echo

Hobby, Ivor and Toe are three gnomes who are terrified of winter – it’s cold and nothing happens in December.  When they fish a cracker out of their pond, a riddle tells them there used to be a thing called Christmas and they are charged with bringing it back to life!

They take a whistle stop tour through the tales and traditions behind everything we love about Christmas, only to find someone is trying to stop them. Who is it and will they succeed in recreating a fabulous new Yuletide?

This bright and cheerful show is a brilliantly bonkers family treat filled with fabulous characters, great songs, and lovely frocks. The funniest show in town this Christmas!

Running time: 1hr 10 mins (no interval)
Age: All
Performs in small to medium theatre venues.
Available to book at your venue for Christmas 2027.
