Horrible Histories - Terrible Tudors in London
This brand-new production marks the company’s tenth year in the West End, which happily coincides with the Birmingham Stage Company’s 30th anniversary. The company has recently been nominated for an Olivier Award for its production of David Walliams’ Billionaire Boy.
Horrible Histories - Terrible Tudors is directed by Neal Foster, designed by Jacqueline Trousdale, lighting by Jason Taylor, music by Matthew Scott, sound by Nick Sagar, with choreography by Kenn Oldfield.
We all want to meet people from history. The trouble is everyone is dead!
So it’s time to prepare yourselves for Terrible Tudors live on stage!
From the horrible Henries to the end of evil Elizabeth, hear the legends (and the lies!) about the torturing Tudors. Find out the fate of Henry's headless wives and his punch up with the Pope. Meet Bloody Mary and see Ed fall dead in his bed. Survive the Spanish Armada as they launch their attack!
It’s history with the nasty bits left in!
Terry Deary is the creator of Horrible Histories and one of Britain's best-selling authors of the 21st Century. He's also the tenth most-borrowed author in British libraries. There are around 50 Horrible Histories titles with total sales of 25 million in 40 countries. Deary is also the author of over 200 fiction and non-fiction books for young people including his series of books Dangerous Days.
Neal Foster is Actor/Manager of Birmingham Stage Company which since its foundation in 1992 has staged over one hundred productions. The company has become one of the world's leading producers of theatre for children and their families, including Horrible Histories Live on Stage for seventeen years in the UK, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Qatar, Bahrain, Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand and Australia. Foster has written and directed all of the most recent Horrible Histories shows including Barmy Britain - Parts One, Two, Three, Four and Five (Garrick Theatre, Apollo Theatre and Sydney Opera House); Groovy Greeks and Incredible Invaders for a national tour and Wicked Warwick at Warwick Castle. His first fictional adaptations were David Walliams' Gangsta Granny and Billionaire Boy, both of which transferred to the Garrick Theatre and have been nominated for an Olivier Award.
Horrible Histories shows are recommended for ages 5 to 105 (106 year olds may not like them!)

Just like the booksMy son loved the Horrible Histories books and this was a really good translation onto the stage. The show had the same kind of humour as the books and the same level of historic fact that made them so addictive. The show was also quite interactive which made it a lot of fun. A great option for children who enjoy facts and fun even if they are not familiar with the books, and for children who are, they will love it!

Very impressed by the actors, such energy! My 7 year old, who knew nothing about the Tudors as he isn’t growing up in the UK, now has a great working knowledge of that period of English history, and absolutely loved the show. As I have a bit more knowledge of history than him, though, you do need to rethink your depiction of Richard III. It looks extremely likely that he didn’t kill the princes in the tower, or was a despicable king. Quite the contrary, in fact…
