Horrible Histories - The Concert

From 10:30AM, Friday, January 23, 2026 to 6:30PM, Saturday, January 24, 2026

Venue: Darlington Hippodrome

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 already facing a tough challenge (he knows he’s good but is he that good?!) but 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 including Richard David-Caine, Harrie Hayes, Inel Tomlinson and Ethan Lawrence singing the sensational TV songs, including Charles II, Dick Turpin and more! Featuring a live band, led by the Horrible Histories song master Richie Webb, and a bunch of Vikings that we couldn’t stop barging through the stage door, this is one show you won’t want to miss! Bring your singing voices for a truly Horrible show!
