Drury Lane

Drury Lane is a guided walking tour from Minimum Labyrinth.

IF THIS EVENT HAS REACHED CAPACITY THEN PLEASE ADD YOURSELF TO THE WAITLIST. YOU CAN ALSO ADD YOURSELF TO OUR MAILING LIST (ON OUR WEBSITE) TO BE THE FIRST TO HEAR ABOUT OTHER DATES FOR THIS AND OTHER WALKS.

Robert Kingham (presenter of ) explores the rich cultural history of one of London’s most colourful, creative and dangerous quarters. Squalor, crime, politics and plague provide the scenery for a teeming cast of rakes and poets, actors and gamblers, playwrights and pickpockets, Freemasons and highwaymen, engravers and compositors, gunpowder plotters and pornographers, butchers and beadles, judges and J*il-breakers, suffragettes and whores, in a story that stretches from Anglo-Saxon settlers on the shores of the Thames to the starched pomp of the British Empire.

We promise you a bawdy, boozy bacchanal, bursting with everything you have come to expect from master storytellers Minimum Labyrinth: obscure factlets, dramatic sweeps of history, dark mysteriousness, musical protrusions and theatrical surprises.

Starting locations vary due to opening times, so we will email you two days before, but it will always be in a pub or café near the north end of Drury Lane. We will make two further stops for a drink along the route, and end at a fourth pub in the same area.
