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! Historical figures and events will come alive on stage and hover at your fingertips!
The Terrible Tudors
From the horrible Henries to the end of evil Elizabeth, hear the legend (and the lies!) about the torturing Tudors. Find out the fate of Henry's headless wives and his punch up with the Pope. What sort of bed-time stories would YOU have heard if you'd lived in that awful age?
The Vile Victorians
What exactly did a baby farmer do? Would you have survived the misery of the mines or the filth of the factories? Ride on the rotten railway and watch out for the wicked workhouse. Just what is the story behind the song 'The Hole in the Elephant's Bottom?' And dare you join in?!
Don't miss this horribly good chance to travel back in time!
