Rome, 216 BCE. Hannibal is poised to destroy the city – until one woman and one obstinate elephant intervene in this comedic tale of love, war and fate.

Yet Hannibal hesitates. His prized war elephant is behaving oddly, and Amytis, a Roman senator’s wife, has suddenly appeared at his door. Is it a sign from the gods, or simply a distraction?

Following last year’s ★★★★ hit The Devil May Care, Alces Theatrical Productions returns with an innovative new adaptation of the Broadway classic The Road to Rome, written by Oscar and Pulitzer Prize winner Robert Sherwood.

Written and directed by critically acclaimed playwright and director Mark R Giesser, this is an unmissable, comedic tale of love, war, fate… and how one woman and one obstinate elephant changed history.
