What if Napoleon didn't die in exile? What if he swapped identities with a lowly sailor and made it back to Paris? What then? One of the UK's most unique theatre companies creates this poignantly moving and wryly humorous re-imagining of the final years of Napoleon Bonaparte. Using our trademark comic physicality Told by an Idiot explore the absurdity of trying to retrieve time and glory.
