Geoffrey Chaucer's THE CANTERBURY TALES:
As a group of pilgrims journeys to Canterbury to pay homage to Thomas Becket, they engage in a battle of wits to see who can tell the most entertaining story. This contest results in breathtaking narratives of glorious honor, salacious lust, unspeakable courage, relentless faith and hilarious ribaldry. Join Columba's 2009 MFA Acting class they fearlessly bring to life these timeless tales.

In a New Adaptation by Ken Kaissar, MFA 2009
