Oh Zeus!
Kings of Comedy Le Navet Bete are back! For lovers of Fawlty Towers, Bottom and The Play That Goes Wrong, Oh Zeus! is a riotous, all-out hilarious ride through Greek mythology.
When the stability of Olympus is threatened by the marriage of Zeus’s daughter Hebe to a mere mortal, the King of the Gods hatches a plan to derail the wedding. Three actors play 40 characters in this mythical farce through Ancient Greece, the Underworld and back. Expect sensational physical comedy, outrageous jokes, fast paced chaos, and more togas than you can smash a plate at.
From one of the UK’s most-loved comedy theatre companies and creators of Dracula: The Bloody Truth, King Arthur and Treasure Island, “you are promised a non-stop evening of entertainment from a company who have a bottomless pit of talent at their disposal”.
Oh Zeus! was first performed on Friday 20th March 2026 at the Queen’s Theatre, Barnstaple, Devon, UK.
This show has been supported by Arts Council England and Landmark Theatres.
