Who doesn’t love a good mix of gruesome history facts and irreverent humour? Those of us who grew up on Horrible Histories certainly would, and we’re in for a treat this summer. The series has teamed up with the Ramses and the Pharaohs’ Gold exhibition for an interactive tour led by Ramses II himself.
For six weeks only, discover pharaohs, mummies, myths, and mayhem in this entertaining and interactive experience, perfect for the whole family. Let Ramses walk you through the darkest and strangest secrets of ancient Egypt, uncovered through brilliant storytelling and up-close encounters with extraordinary ancient artefacts.
Meet Ramses the Great and tour the dark secrets of ancient Egypt at Horrible Histories: Live At The Museum
Your tour with Ramses will begin inside the exhibition itself, where the great pharaoh will welcome you alongside his royal guard. Together, they will guide you through their ancient world, where you’ll discover fascinating treasures and original Egyptian artefacts that have survived more than 3,000 years. Expect to come face to face with colossal statues, exquisite jewellery, and even the pharaoh’s coffin.
The pair will also reveal some of the most incredible stories hidden behind the greatest wonders of ancient Egypt. Discover why Egyptians mummified their dead, learn about dangerous journeys through the afterlife, and find out all about the secrets underlying the reign of Ramses the Great.
The experience doesn’t end there, however. Your adventure through this ancient world will continue with a laugh-out-loud Horrible Histories live show, featuring audience participation and the infamous Mummy Rap you won’t resist singing along to. This is also where you’ll experience first-hand how a pharaoh is turned into a mummy – one of ancient Egypt’s most fascinating burial rituals brought to life before your eyes.
