Meet two ladies, both betrayed by their lovers. What did they do next? Of course, they visited the pharmacy and bought a packet of poison. Ever so cheap, less than 6 old pennies. Welcome to the true tales of two Victorian ladies with one word on the tip of their tongues…Murder!
David Allen’s talks are not to be missed, and as an audience member you are guaranteed to come away in a good mood, almost always having learnt something, from Victorian history through to film set gossip about Hollywood greats.
With over 10 years experience, London born David is a very popular public speaker, who is the perfect combination of being both hugely knowledgeable and a very skilled and entertaining storyteller.
Funny, light hearted, but meticulously well researched, his talks are both fun and thought provoking, and are either taken from his own life experience - travelling the world, or in his professional life as a solicitor, actor & professional storyteller – or are based on hours, days and weeks of tireless historical research, trawling through the archives and records dating back to the 1800s.
A performer at heart, David has appeared in a variety of shows for children and adults, including his one man storytelling shows on factual Victorian Murders. With other theatre companies, David has employed his gift for improvisation in various plays with a particular focus on immersive theatre, such as the award nominated Jack the Ripper’s London and Follow the Rabbit.
