As the preparations for the 2012 Games advance, Much Wenlock’s own unique role in the story is celebrated with a winning twist by Vamos Theatre Company, which is touring this show to sixty UK venues this spring. Vamos is a full mask, physical theatre company, with three actors taking the roles of Wenlock’s professional and plebeian classes. This comic production dramatises William Penny Brookes’ determination to improve the health of all. A story of health, sports, a reforming doctor and a runaway chicken!
