We saw the sagas on Sunday evening . It was a great few hours with a glimpse of history told in funny short stories. 2 actors with abundance of energy keeping the audience engaged throughout.

Talented actors carry this show with a little help from the audience, and some extra unique props. The theater space is small and most people have front row seats. The actors stay after for photos and to talk to the audience. Highly recommended!

I highly recommend it if you have the opportunity.…
