Enjoy a riotous ride through Greek Mythology in comedy play coming to Lancaster
Acclaimed comedy theatre company Le Navet Bete presents Oh Zeus! at Lancaster’s The Dukes from Tuesday September 15 to Saturday September 19, as part of a UK tour.
Oh Zeus! is a riotous all-out hilarious ride through the world of Greek mythology.
When the stability of Olympus is threatened by the marriage of Zeus’ daughter Hebe to a mere mortal, the King of the Gods hatches a plan to derail the wedding.
Three actors play nearly 40 characters in this mythical farce through Ancient Greece, the Underworld and back.


Expect sensational physical comedy, outrageous jokes, fast paced chaos, and more togas than you can smash a plate at - perfect for lovers of Fawlty Towers, Bottom and The Play That Goes Wrong.
Behind the chaos, lies a costume rail worthy of Olympus itself: the cast of three race through 39 costumes and a staggering 84 costume changes - 63 of which are lightning-fast quick changes - as they hurtle between gods, mortals and monsters at breakneck speed.
Since 2008, Le Navet Bete has been touring the UK and internationally with their unique and chaotic style of physical comedy and have earned the reputation as one of the UK’s leading midscale theatre companies.
Proudly based in Exeter, Devon and supported by organisations such as Arts Council England, the Exeter Northcott Theatre and the Exeter Phoenix they have been on a continuous mission to create and tour hilarious, physical and totally accessible comedy theatre using creative and engaging storytelling for absolutely everyone (ages four to 104).
