Fast-paced two-hander stage show with 3D Boggle vision that brings Britain's barmy past to life, recommended for ages 5 and above.
Horrible Histories: Barmy Britain comes to Milton Keynes Theatre on Thursday 1 July and Saturday 3 July 2027. It's the franchise's brand new theatrical offering, following Terry Deary's best-selling books illustrated by Martin Brown, the hit TV show and several years as a family theatrical smash.
The live show is a fast-paced two-hander that brings Britain's barmy past to life, from revolting rulers and mad monarchs to figures such as Boudicca, Richard the Lionheart, Elizabeth I, Guy Fawkes, Dick Turpin, Burke and Hare and Queen Victoria. It leans into the series' reputation for presenting history's unpleasant realities rather than softening them, with songs, jokes and the trademark gory bits left in. The production is fused with 3D Boggle vision, with effects designed to make on-stage visuals project towards the audience.
