Greg Jenner: Totally Chaotic History: Roman Britain Gets Rowdy! 
Saturday 23 May | 10:30 and 2:30
£7.50pp | Tickets Available Soon 

Think history’s just a boring list of facts and dates? Think again! Join public historian, podcaster, and author Greg Jenner for a whirlwind romp through the chaotic conquest of Britain by the Romans, based on his children’s book Totally Chaotic History: Roman Britain Gets Rowdy! Peppering his fast-paced talk with jokes and funny images, Greg will reveal how Julius Caesar failed, why Emperor Claudius surprised everyone by succeeding, how Caratacus and Boudica fought back, and what happened next to change Britain forever!

Greg Jenner is the host of the chart-topping BBC podcast You’re Dead to Me, and recently presented its family-friendly spin-off Dead Funny History. He was the historical consultant on the multi-award-winning BBC TV comedy show Horrible Histories, and is the author of 4 books for children, and 3 for adults.
