Horroble Histories at Hampton Court Palace

As you know, Lucky is a history person and Mahi is catching the history fever too. So when I saw that Horrible Histories is taking the stage at Hampton Court Palace, I said that'll be a perfect outing for us! The tickets were reasonably priced and costs £19 for the 3 of us (under 5s go free).

With 2 showings a day, we picked the 12pm slot so we can have a nice picnic and have the whole afternoon to spend somewhere else (for us, it was outdoor Hampton Pool).

The show was simply superb and laugh out loud! The transitions between different time periods and characters were smooth. We were visited by Boudicca, Henry VIII, Queen Victoria, Guy Fawkes and some which we didn't know about like Richard Turpin and the Bodysnatchers, William and William.

The actors were good. The songs ere amazing. We loved the rapping and twerking from Queen Vic especially!

Of course with the elections coming and Brexit still the talk of the town, they were references to them all and some seriously laugh it loud moments and clapping from the grown-ups.

All in all, we loved it! We learned about new people, we laughed, we squeaked and most of it, we had a good time and will be back to see them in the West End!
