The Pleasance Theatre is the home for Conpulsion’s schedule of Talks and Sword Fighting Displays. You’ll find HEMA at the Theatre door and speak to them about the art of sword fighting, and then watch their displays throughout the weekend.
Come here the great talks from our Guests.
These events are all part of your Conpulsion ticket and given the size of the Theatre every ticket holder is welcome to attend without pre-booking.
