Andrew McClelland's Somewhat Accurate History of the Fall of the Roman Empire

Synopsis


Extra Show Just Announced! - Saturday 17th April 7.15pm. Tickets On Sale Now!

Join Andrew (2009 Sydney Comedy Festival Jury Prize Winner) as he examines how the world's greatest empire managed to throw itself to the lions. Was it the decadent orgies, the rise of Christianity or purely a case of wide scale lead poisoning? Featuring blood thirsty/humorously ironic assassinations, the fascinatingly perverse personal habits of Emperors, people named Sextus, intriguing parallels with the present day and magic potion-toting Gauls.
