Horrible Histories - The Concert
2 - 4 April 2026
Event details
THE ULTIMATE FIRST CONCERT FOR KIDS!
For the very first time, your favourite songs and actors from the BAFTA Award-winning CBBC TV series will be appearing live (and dead!) on stage in a very special production!
When William Shakespeare is asked to create the greatest show on earth, he’s no idea how much trouble he’ll get from monstrous monarchs like King Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Victoria! Things hot up when Death appears – and now Boudica and Cleopatra want to take over! Can things get any worse? Of course they can!
Don’t miss this unique chance to see the amazing TV actors singing the sensational TV songs, including Charles II, Dick Turpin, The Monarchs Song and many more! Featuring a live band, led by the Horrible Histories song master Richie Webb, this is one show you won’t want to miss! Bring your singing voices for a truly Horrible show!
★★★★★ ‘There was a deliriously wild reception for the show! You’re in for a treat!’ Manchester Evening News
‘A brilliant watch with incredible performances! I was left grinning from ear to ear!’ Wales Online
