A live stage production of Horrible Histories' Barmy Britain has been rescheduled to a later date at Knebworth House.

Car Park Party was due to present the drive-in theatre show at the Hertfordshire stately home on Sunday, April 11.

However, Step 2 of the government's lockdown exit roadmap doesn't come into force until the next day at the earliest.

So promoters of the drive-in production have put back its appearance in Knebworth Park by a fortnight.


Horrible Histories: Barmy Britain at Knebworth House will now take place on Saturday, April 24 with show times at 2pm and 5pm.

Tickets holders have been notified of the changes, but tickets are still available for the new date via www.carparkparty.com

Barmy Britain features Queen Boudicca, King Henry VIII, Guy Fawkes, Dick Turpin, Queen Victoria and more historical characters from our barmy past.
