About

We all want to meet people from history. The trouble is everyone is dead!

So it’s time to prepare yourselves for HORRIBLE HISTORIES live on stage
with the return of Barmy Britain – the best bits!

Can you beat battling Boudicca? Will King John be a martyr for the Magna
Carta? What if you caught the putrid plague? Can Parliament survive
gunpowder Guy? Would you stand and deliver to dastardly Dick Turpin?
Escape the clutches of Burke and Hare and move to the groove with party
Queen Victoria!

It's the history of Britain with the nasty bits left in – to entertain the whole
family this Summer!
