Event Description

** KIDS JUST £5 **


Henry VIII along with his many wives and Queen Elizabeth I are all on their way to Cowes!


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!

Car Park Opens: 12:00
Gates Open: 12:30
Main Show: 13:30-14:30
Gates Close: 15:00




“Is this any way for children to learn about history? Too right it is! If lessons were always like this, kids would be queuing at the school gates!” The Times


“Mortgage the school if you have to. Ransom the governors, even. No child or adult should be denied the chance to see this: live theatre and history at its rip-roaring best.” Times Educational Supplement


 

“These actors should be in every school history class across the land. Or given how little most us know, maybe every living room!” The Scotsman

 

“Wholly accessible, educating, entertaining and enjoyable, Horrible Histories live on stage is a tour de force. Five stars out of five!” BBC.co.uk

 

This show is part of The Wight Proms, the annual festival of open-air picnic concerts on the Isle of Wight from 16-21 August 2022, celebrating comedy, opera, musical theatre and the orchestral proms.
