From the Collection: Drawings
Northampton Museum And Art Gallery 4-6 Guildhall Rd,, Northampton, Northamptonshire, United KingdomAn exhibition of drawings from the Northampton Museums & Art Gallery collection. This exhibition explores drawing as a fundamental artistic language, presenting preparatory sketches and finished works that reveal how ideas take shape on paper. Through the delicate studies of Henry Moore, the atmospheric sketches of Walter Sickert, the imaginative designs of Sir Edward Burne Jones, and the expressive drawings of Clare Abbatt, amongst others, visitors are invited to consider drawing not merely as a preliminary step but as an art form in its own right. The works on display highlight how artists across different periods and practices use line, tone, and observation to experiment, problem solve, and refine their vision. Together, they celebrate drawing’s enduring role as a tool for exploration, invention, and creative thinking.

Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DPJoin the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) for an epic orchestral afternoon at the Royal & Derngate with internationally acclaimed violinist Clara-Jumi Kang. Please note that this programme has changed from earlier published versions. Please note the change of conductor for this concert. Ben Glassberg Conductor Clara-Jumi Kang Violin Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Hisaishi Encounter for String Orchestra Sibelius Violin Concerto Beethoven Symphony No.5 The first five bars of Beethoven’s iconic Fifth Symphony, possibly the most famous opening motif in classical music history, portend something mysterious and momentous. Filled with turmoil and beauty, this orchestral masterwork will leave you awestruck long after its triumphant finale. But that’s not all: the evening opens with a delightful new miniature from the RPO’s Composer-in-Association Joe Hisaishi (Spirited Away), and Clara-Jumi Kang brings her world-class insight to Sibelius’ brooding yet passionate Violin Concerto. Bringing together folk and classical styles, this timeless piece gives both soloist and orchestra a chance to shine, from its expressive and passionate beginning through to its spirited, dance-like final movement. ‘A vibrantly intense performance… direct yet sensitive and her technique throughout was marvellously secure and commanding… The powerhouse articulation and accuracy in the finale was phenomenal.’ – Limelight on Clara- Jumi Kang playing Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, November 2024

Jimmy Tarbuck OBE Live
Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DPJimmy Tarbuck OBE, one of the most popular household names from the golden era of British stand up, is back with a bang. The much-loved entertainer is on tour through the spring and summer 2026 with his solo show An Evening With Jimmy Tarbuck which stops off at some of his favourite towns and venues in the UK. And he can’t wait. An Evening With Jimmy Tarbuck will see the acclaimed comedian and raconteur reflecting on a remarkable life in showbusiness, the seeds of which were sown in childhood. Jimmy will present a hugely entertaining mix of anecdotes and jokes, including recollections of his many years presenting Sunday Night At The London Palladium which shot him to fame in 1963. There will also be stories from Jimmy’s childhood, growing up in Liverpool where he was classmates – and good mates – with John Lennon. And of course, his golfing life, which has proved to be a rich source of entertainment and celebrity both on and off the course.
