Henley gets Taskmaster first! Brand-new live show makes its debut at The Kenton this half-term

The wait is nearly over! Taskmaster for Kids: Live on Stage is making its first-ever live appearance right here in Henley-on-Thames, and local families are invited to be among the very first to experience the fun.

This October half-term, Taskmaster is swapping the television screen for the stage as a brand-new live show arrives at The Kenton Theatre on Mon 26 and Tue 27 Oct, before heading to London’s Leicester Square Theatre.

And where better to launch the mayhem than Henley?

Big laughs. Ridiculous challenges. One golden duck.

Hosted by Taskmaster Series 20 favourite Phil Ellis, alongside Mr B the Teacher, the brains behind Taskmaster Education, this brand-new work-in-progress show promises an hour of gloriously unpredictable family entertainment.

The Taskmaster himself has delivered a very important assignment: put on a spectacularly silly live show!

Expect ridiculous audience challenges, hilarious mishaps, special messages from Greg Davies and Alex Horne, and five brave young contestants competing for the ultimate prize… a shiny golden duck trophy!

With plenty of audience participation, laugh-out-loud moments and the possibility of things going spectacularly wrong, it’s Taskmaster as you’ve never experienced it before.

And with The Kenton hosting the show’s first-ever live performances, you’ll be among the first audiences anywhere to see the fun unfold.

Four chances to join the fun!

So gather the family, head into Henley and join us for a half-term packed with laughter, mischief and theatrical magic.
