Overview

Birmingham Stage Company Ltd presents
Horrible Histories: Barmy Britain 

So it’s time to prepare yourselves for Horrible Histories live on stage! With amazing actors and  eye-popping 3D special effects, this astounding show is guaranteed to thrill you and your children. Historical figures and events will come alive on stage and hover at your fingertips!

Can you beat battling Boudica? Will you roar with Richard the Lionheart? Could you survive the putrid plague? Would you be executed by evil Elizabeth? Will Parliament survive gunpowder Guy? Dare 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 history with the nasty bits left in to entertain the whole family!
