- Forkbeard Fantasy, Four of Swords
Join Jason on his quest to find the Golden Fleece, in two immersive live performances that transform Weston’s Tropicana into an epic and mythical land – perfect for all Percy Jackson fans.
Created by Four of Swords with the legendary Forkbeard Fantasy, the story unfolds as puppetry,
film projections, taiko drumming and undead parkour bring Jason’s voyage to 21st century life.
Medea continues the journey in this ultimate tale of revenge, combining grisly special effects with a masked
singing chorus and the spectacular chariot of the Sun-God himself, to provide a dramatic ride like no other…
Wed 25-Sat 28: Jason & The Argonauts 2pm / Medea 7.30pm, £14/£10 per show or both shows on the same day for £20/£16. Jason & The Argonauts recommended age 8+, Medea 12+.

NB On Thur 26, visitors to the Tropicana seafront can step back in time and enter an arena of Ancient Games from Greece and Rome. Commissioned by the Royal Shakespeare Company and brought to Weston by new games company Shove Halfpenny, the event provides a unique chance to take part in a range of activities,
from gladiatorial sacrifice at the mini Colosseum to pitting your wits in a 3000 year old board game or flexing
your muscles in a simple game of knucklebones. Free, drop-in, 1-4pm: suitable for all ages.
