Venue: The Lab @ Theatre Royal Plymouth
Running time: 55 minutes
Recommended age: 12+
Spencer Percival has one claim to fame. He’s the only British Prime Minister ever to be assassinated. Unfortunately no one’s ever heard of him.
206 years later, Nick Hall tells his story.
In this inventive and hilarious journey through history, Nick brings alive the world of the 19th century, while drawing parallels with the present. In this age of Brexit, Trump, Corbynista and Maybot, could we still learn something from the past?
As seen on BBC2, BBC3, and BBC Radio 4.
