The Canterbury Tales
classic story by Geoffrey Chaucer, adapted by Lindsay Price
Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales follows a lively story-telling contest among a group of pilgrims on their way to the shrine of Saint Thomas à Beckett at Canterbury Cathedral. These pilgrims each agree to tell a story and the person who tells the best story, as determined by the Innkeeper, will have his supper paid for by the rest of the group.
Travel back in time to 14th century England, then on to Canterbury with the Prioress, the Miller, the Reeve, the Franklin, the Pardoner, and the Wife of Bath as they weave their tales with elements of humor, satire, ethics, virtue, and courtly love..
