The Roman workshop was brilliant, Paul delivered it superbly. The children were all engaged and learned loads about the Romans. They thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and loved being in the role of Roman soldiers. It was a fantastic experience for the children and really brought to life our topic of the Romans. Thank you very much for an excellent workshop on the Romans.

Note: Always a pleasure to perform at your school as I always receive such a warm, friendly welcome. Thanks from Roman Tales.

Great performance! Thank you for engaging the pupils so well. Paul Burnett, teacher, Blackness primary school, Falkirk

“Fantastic performance from Paul with lots of exciting activities and active participation from both children and adults. Roman formation was a highlight as well as the toilets! Paul had a great deal of enthusiasm that helped the families get into the Roman spirit. Good moments of laughter all around and a terrific way for families to learn about Roman history!”

Margaret Dickie, Climate FORTH Project

“Paul did a tremendous job of adapting his material and approach to the needs and different ages of the children present. The children all learned something new, and the grown ups enjoyed it just as much as the young people!”

Alice MacPherson, Climate FORTH Project

Performing as part of a duo as a jester rather than a Roman at Dunkeld Living History weekend - Sat 4th & Sun 5th May 2024

We had the pleasure of having this fantastic act perform at our Living History weekend again this year. The two Jesters did not disappoint, keeping both adults and children entertained throughout the weekend followed by much applause and laughter.

They were very professional, arrived on time, and left without a trace. Their camp set-up had an impressive array of games and equipment, and their arena performances drew large crowds who were left crying with laughter.

We would highly recommend them for any event.

Ruth Brown, Dunkeld archive manager.

Paul you delivered again! Great to see our favourite Roman start off our topic - what a hook! Another fantastic, interactive session, full of Roman personality and an array of high quality artefacts. "It has been the best, I've learned so much. Paul is scary and very funny at the same time."

M. Orr, teacher, Gylemuir primary school, Edinburgh
