The World According to Kaleb: Kaleb Goes On Tour
2024-02-08 19:30 (Europe/London) | Royal and Derngate Theatre, 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP
THE WORLD ACCORDING TO KALEB: KALEB GOES ON TOUR
Shut the gate! Kaleb Cooper, Chipping Norton’s finest celebrity farmer and Sunday Times bestselling author, who shot to fame starring in Prime Video series, Clarkson’s Farm, has decided to conquer his fear of the unknown and embark on his first ever theatre tour with, The World Accordng to Kaleb: Kaleb goes on tour.
Kaleb has captured the hearts of viewers around the world with his often-frustrating quest to teach Jeremy Clarkson a thing or two about farming, as well as his extremely amusing comments on life, the universe and everything. First and foremost a farmer, Kaleb is now learning something new himself and stepping outside of his beloved Chippy to treat audiences to a rip-roaring riot of a show.
Fans can expect Kaleb’s strong views on many things–including sheep (‘stupid’), Jeremy Clarkson (f***ing idiot’), goats (‘they’re a proper good clear-up animal–they eat everything–no wonder they taste horrible’), New York (‘if it’s like London where there are no tractors, that’s no good’), famous people, why farming is the best job in the world and, crucially, sartorial matters such as hairstyles-especially his own!
Despite his surprise status as a household name, Kaleb is still the same down to earth, hard-working farmer, with his feet firmly on the ground. He will give audiences the chance to participate in some rather interesting rural pastimes during the show, as well as highlighting some of the many challenges that British farmers face today and perhaps share how we can all help to make a difference and support them.
With often-unwitting humour, deadpan delivery and unique observations, Kaleb is coming to Northampton to tell it like he sees it!

Born from a collection of poems and the remarkable album that followed, this acclaimed live production sees Cara skilfully interweave her new material with a carefully curated selection of her beloved classics. The resulting tapestry seamlessly blends storytelling, poetry, and song, offering a rare and evocative glimpse into Cara’s world, her personal memories and stories inspired by her native Co. Derry and the people, places, and customs she holds closest to her heart.
Following the official release of the album and the publication of her book of the same name, Cara will be bringing “Coming Home” to life once again. She’ll be accompanied by an incredible band who help to make this her most compelling live show yet—in which profound memories and emotions are unlocked in all who see it.
