Bedford Park Proms 2022

About

Bedford Park Proms 25th Anniversary – Part Two takes place on Sunday 31st July 2022 and is Bedfordshire's most prestigious al fresco Proms event.
We are proud to welcome back opera star and BBC Radio presenter Wynne Evans to join us as our headliner along with Broadway and West End sensation Marisha Wallace.

Wynne Evans is regularly singing to millions for the TV advertising campaign that has made him a household name as the spoof opera star Gio Compario. Although a spoof opera star in the Go Compare insurance adverts, Wynne is a professionally trained opera singer with over 25 years' experience, and has a debut album 'A Song in My Heart' that went to the Number 1 in the classical charts.

He is a regular presenter on BBC Radio Wales and has also presented on BBC Radio 3 and Classic FM and most recently performed for the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall at their Welsh home.

Singer and actor Marisha Wallace is a Broadway and West End sensation, best known for starring in Something Rotten, Dreamgirls, Waitress and more recently in the role of Motormouth Maybelle in Hairspray!

She's topped the music charts with her cover of Annie's Tomorrow, released at the peak of the pandemic to raise funds for performers out of work and been playlisted on Radio 2 with her singles and subsequent album Tomorrow. Marisha has performed on Strictly Come Dancing, released her EP and sang for the Queen at the Royal Variety Show.

The soloists will be accompanied by the London Gala Orchestra conducted by the enigmatic Stephen Bell, Once again The Bedford Choral Society will also be part of the show.
