Horrible Histories is returning to the West End this summer 2025, with their hit show Horrible Histories: Barmy Britain – The Best Bits.
Birmingham Stage Company’s acclaimed live show for kids will play daytimes at the West End’s Apollo Theatre throughout August, from 31 July to 31 August 2025.
Based on the children’s books and popular, BAFTA-winning TV show of the same name, Horrible Histories brings history to life for all ages.
Barmy Britain centres on the history of Britain with the nasty bits left in, and brings together all the best bits from the hit show.
Written and directed by Neal Foster, and the creative team for Barmy Britain – The Best Bits also includes set and costume design by Jacqueline Trousdale, lighting design by Jason Taylor, and sound design by Nick Sagar, with further creatives – and casting – to be announced.

Currently playing in London is Horrible Histories’ festive show Horrible Christmas, at the Alexandra Palace Theatre until 4 January 2025.
