The Legend Of Rooney’s Ring

18 Jul 2025 - 23 Aug 2025

Royal Court Theatre

Join the Royal Court Theatre in the far-flung, mystical land of Liverpool where you will meet our hero, Wayne, who is as fast as horse and as strong as another horse. He is on a dangerous quest of heroic deeds and has vowed to fight evil through sheer force of will while wearing a fetching pair of furry undies. He doesn’t care about all that fighting though, he just wants his C’leen back.

C’leen is a humble bricklayer’s daughter from Crocky but, with her shiny caramel hair, she is the most beautiful woman in the whole kingdom. They fall deeply in love, making the sun shine, the flowers grow and the birds sing as tunefully as Posh Spice after the autotune’s been turned right up. All was right with the world,until Wayne got distracted by some lovely ladies…

C’leen has cast Wayne out and biffed his golden ring out of the window causing a dark shadow to fall across the land. Only one man can defeat the wicked Prince and bring light and joy back to the people. Our Wayne!

Helen Serafinowicz (Motherland, Nova Jones) has created the ultimate scouse sword and sorcery tale that is packed with magic, romance, original songs and stupid gags. Based on a half-true rumour, this story of myth and missus will have you laughing your axe off all night long.
