About this Event

Award-winning theatre maker and “Fringe legend” (Time Out), Victoria Melody joined a historical re-enactment society... because we all deal with divorce differently!
Spending weekends as a Musketeer trying to get her head straight, she uncovered the story ofa bunch of 17th-century radicals called The Diggers—and everything changed.
What started as a personal search for happiness turned into a quest to find the Diggers oftoday. She didn’t expect to find them far from the battlefield, right on her doorstep.
Blending storytelling and stand-up, past and present collide in this tale of high jinks and resistance.
Directed by Mark Thomas, this celebrates theordinary people still shaping history.
Commissioned by Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival with financial support from East BrightonTrust, Creative Crawley as part of Creative Playground, and Keep It Fringe.
Supported using public funding by Arts Council England.
