The NAC Pub Quiz

The NAC Pub Quiz

To celebrate the upcoming show The Last Quiz Night on Earth coming to NAC on 3rd March, we have devised our very own Wolverhampton pub quiz. Theatre is a round that’s very often left out of the usual pub quiz, but with its long history, we think it deserves a whole round of its own. There’s also a round all about pubs too!
