Horrible Histories Live
This combined Horrible Histories Live event brings two riotous time periods to the stage in one lively package. The cast whisks audiences through the world of the Tudors with bold characters, big personalities and cheeky humour, then shifts to the mysteries of ancient Egypt with pharaohs, pyramids and plenty of unexpected facts.

Show Info
This event joins two favourites from the long running Horrible Histories stage collection, which adapts the bestselling books by Terry Deary. Terrible Tudors explores the dramatic reigns of Tudor monarchs, while Woeful Egyptians dives into the beliefs, customs and rulers of ancient Egypt. Both halves use sketches, songs and simple staging to make real history feel immediate and entertaining.
The Horrible Histories live format has been performed widely across the UK for many years, earning praise for presenting facts in a way that children remember.
