Imperial College Musical Theatre Tour (ICOS) presents A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum at 7.30pm.

Set in ancient Rome, Stephen Sondheim’s famous farce tells the tale of Pseudolus, a wily yet affable slave, and his dreams of something higher than a life of servitude.  One fateful day his master, Hero, falls in love with Philia, a courtesan of the house of Marcus Lycus, a house of… ill-repute next door.  She is betrothed to Miles Gloriousus, a notorious general famed for his large stride, mighty thighs and for having a general disregard for human life. 

The rest of the play follows Pseudolus’s attempts to set up Hero and Philia, despite the interventions of many of the other colourful characters of Rome.

Tickets available from Budleigh TIC on 01395 445275.
