About this show
Everyone’s competing in the inaugural Best Ever Creation Story Contest. Fairy Tale harbours secret hopes of winning, Bible’s pretty confident, and Big Bang Theory thinks it’s all a formality. But who will win? And who’s qualified to judge this contest anyway? This family-friendly play is preceded by Eurekas about two struggling Greek philosophers in classical antiquity who wonder if they should even bother with it anymore – especially with people like Archimedes around!
