A labyrinth of strange tales from the streets of Norwich...

Celebrate the writers who have lived in the city and those who have written about Norwich on this 2-hour walking tour, which starts outside The Forum and ends in Tombland. Listen to readings and hear stories about writers from Julian of Norwich to Daniel Defoe, Parson Woodforde, Amelia Opie, Harriet Martineau, Anna Sewell, JB Priestley, Ian McEwan and more. There's Shakespeare at the Erpingham Gate, the tale of Will Kemp's 'Nine Days Wonder' at the Maddermarket, excerpts from the Paston Letters and the proud history of libraries and newspapers in the city.
