About

The Moss Troopers are a roving trio of storytellers, historians, educators, entertainers and fools. For the summer holidays, the Moss Troopers will bring elements of our Myth Quest exhibition out of the page and into reality. Dressed in costumes these characters will weave amongst the Myth Quest trails looking for visitors who may have taken a wrong step in the parallel. You also may find these characters at the start of your journey in Mary's study, or the Mythical Archive, or Hall of Hero's, why not ask them questions about their experiences in this magic and mystical world and don't be afraid to ask them for help should you find yourself in a dangerous situation in the Parallel and need to return to the safety of the archive.
