Horrible Histories Live Onboard!
​Terrible Thames


✭✭✭✭✭ 5/5
With the summer holidays just around the corner and the prospect of sunny days and day trips aplenty, now's the time to start planning ahead.

If you're thinking of a day out in London with the kids, the Horrible Histories team have come up with a fantastic and novel river cruise along the Thames. Terrible Thames is a cruise trip with a difference.  Embarking at Tower Bridge Quay, as you board, drinks and ice-lollies are offered to all.

Just as we are about to set off we are joined by young Billy and his teacher, (played brilliantly by Jack Toland and Molly Roberts below) who make the journey super fun. Billy's cheeky sense of humour is infectious and he has the kids and adults chuckling with his knowledge of the Thames and, not least, the varying ways 'poo' has been associated with it.  Can't beat a bit of toilet humour to get kids on your side, right?

All aboard!
The cruise takes us past the Tower of London, Cleoptra's needle, Westminster and the Globe and we are told all sorts of interesting and fascinating stories; some that were completely new to me.  Pay attention grown-ups, you will certainly learn something too.

Billy and his teacher take you on a fantastic journey to discover the terrible truth about London’s most iconic landmarks. Combining immersive theatre in Horrible Histories style, the tour will surprise and shock in equal measure as it delivers its unique take on London to thrill both children and adults alike. 

What a great way to spend a staycation this year.
