Those Terrible Tudors and Awful Egyptians are heading for Hull New Theatre from 25 – 27 June with two hilarious shows featuring eye-popping 3D special effects.
In Terrible Tudors, take a trip through the horrible Henries to the end of evil Elizabeth and hear the legend
(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 and if that wasn’t enough, survive the
Spanish Armada as it sails into the audience.
While Awful Egyptians invites you to meet the fascinating Pharaohs, gasp at the power of the pyramids
and discover the foul facts of death and decay with the meanest mummies in Egypt. Get ready to rumble
with Ramesses the Great and only the bravest dare enter the Gates of the Afterlife. It’s the history of
Egypt with the nasty bits left in.
A special feature of the productions is the amazing 3D effects called Bogglevision! Among an array of 3D
illusions the audience will see the Spanish Armada firing cannonballs into the auditorium or the Mummy
reaching out to grab them.
