Horrible Histories Prom Written by Claire Wetton

It’s Prom Season with a spectacular Horrible Histories edition (‘Orrible Opera’) written by my client Claire Wetton to be performed at the Royal Albert Hall. Two performances will take place on Monday 25 August, at 12.30pm and 3.30pm. The second Prom will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 3 and will then be available on BBC Sounds. It will also be filmed for TV, airing on the CBeebies Channel on Sunday 26 October, and available afterwards on BBC iPlayer.

Now in its fifth week, the BBC Proms 2025 season, which began on 18 July, spans eight weeks and features 86 concerts, including 25 televised Proms. More than 235,000 tickets to Proms at the Royal Albert Hall and venues across the UK have been purchased so far. Over 6,000 people attended the BBC Proms in the North-East of England, including over 4,500 experiencing a Prom for the first time. The season also had a record-breaking opening weekend, with over half a million streams across BBC Sounds and BBC iPlayer.
