We all make mistakes, but rarely do they change the course of history.

5 Mistakes That Changed History is a hilarious historical storytelling show performed by historian and comedian, Paul Coulter, about five people and how their mistakes (big and small) changed the world.

After a fantastic show in Buxton in 2025, the show returns in 2026. Blending history, storytelling, and comedy, the show has been a smash-hit, sell-out success on the comedy festival circuit, selling out both Edinburgh Fringe Festival and Adelaide Fringe Festival three years in a row!

If you love history, don't let your mistake be missing out on this show!
