What's it all about?
Have you ever wondered why the Romans never won MasterChef? Would you lose your heart or head to horrible Henry? Will Parliament escape gunpowder Guy? Enrol yourself at Georgian Crime School, dare to dance the Tyburn jig and find out what a baby farmer did!
Set in loathsome London, the BSC proudly present the world premiere of BARMY BRITAIN.
Don't miss this history of Britain with the nasty bits left in!
Who's in it?
This fast-paced show features just two actors in lightning-quick changes representing different characters through history - Benedict Martin, a regular colloborator with the Birmingham Stage Company who's featured in 'Horrible' theatre productions before, and Lauryn Redding, who has performed at the Globe Theatre as well as a part of the Awful Egyptians and Rotten Romans UK tour.
