Roman Gladiator

A unique insight into life in Roman Britain

Set in 72 AD, our Roman soldier in full armour, Lucius Felix Silvanus, talks to the children about life as a gladiator, displaying his weaponry and demonstrating the equipment used.

The children are led through a soldiers' drill and a mock barbarian battle. Lucius also spends time describing the food he ate, the way he bathed and takes time to play some Roman games.

Our Roman workshop is the perfect way to engage children in life during the Roman Empire.
