An epic tale of chivalry and bravery is being retold live on stage in a fiery fantasy production.

The Illustrious and Unholy History of St George and the Dragon has been written by the National Theatre's associate director Tom Morris and writer/director Carl Heap. It tells the tale of a baby born with curious birthmarks depicting a cross and a dragon, and his quest to slay the mythical beast.

The show follows on from production company beggarsbelief's takes on supposedly unstageable epics Ben Hur, Jason and the Argonauts and World Cup 1966.
