The Labours of Hercules
The Hercules story Disney didn't have the guts to tell! Placed under a curse by Hera, queen of the gods, the hero Hercules must perform twelve impossible tasks to gain his freedom. Master storyteller Joshua Crisp brings his dynamic storytelling style and gallery of impressions to create the entire cast of this epic myth himself, filled with unbelievable monsters, superhuman feats, and enough property desctruction to rival a Michael Bay movie.

Co-founder of the Ropetackle Storytellers club, Joshua Crisp has been a rising star on the storytelling scene, recently telling at the Get A Word in Edgeways Spoken Word Festival and Green Gathering. He is a mentor for the Step Up Spoken Word Commission, and shares original stories on the podcast 100 Words of Astounding Beauty.
This event is part of the Made In Sussex season and will be partaking in an April Showcase
