In this revolutionary (see what we did there?) show, Steel tells us in a hilarious fashion what happened in France between the storming of the Bastille and the rise of Napoleon - bringing to life the people who made them happen. Brilliantly insightful and full of laughs, it puts the peculiarity of individual people back at the centre of the story.
