The ever-popular swordand-sorcery\u2019s classic story structure of an innocent wronged by a villain, trained by a master, and returning to seek vengeance is all here. The occasionally clunky contemporary English translation of the intertitles, the fantastically pronounced teeth of the pantomime villain and the low-rent harem are all part of the fun, but the pay-off is a satisfying finale in which the Red Heroine shows everyone who\u2019s boss.<\/p>\n<p>Call\u00a0<strong>01324 506850<\/strong>\u00a0to book this event.
