The Mersey Beatles
2022-03-26 19:30 - 21:30 (Europe/London) | The Deco, The Deco, Abington Square, Northampton NN1 4AE
The Mersey Beatles are touring the world in 2020 and 2021 with a stunning show which celebrates the music of the greatest band of all time.
The Mersey Beatles have been rocking sold-out shows around the globe since 1999 with their truly authentic and widely acclaimed celebration of John, Paul, George and Ringo.
The band – who clocked up more than 600 appearances in a 10-year residency at Liverpool’s legendary Cavern Club – brilliantly exude the inner and outer spirit of the original Fab Four.
Fans and plaudits include John Lennon’s own family.
Every Mersey Beatles concert is a hit-packed celebration from the ‘Mop Top’ hits of Beatlemania, through the psychedelic creativity of Sgt Pepper to the melodic wonder of the Fab Four’s later work such as ‘The White Album’ and Abbey Road.
Their 2020/21 World Tour sees them play theatres and festivals across America, Australia, the Far East and Europe – and they are bringing this not-to-be-missed show home to the UK.

Luke tries to work out what masculinity really means with the help of Louis Theroux, the cast of Downton Abbey and even Jürgen Klopp.
Don’t miss this remarkable one-man show from one of Britain’s most exciting, new comedy talents.

Stewart Lee: Snowflake / Tornado
2022-03-27 20:00 - 22:00 | Royal and Derngate Theatre, 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP
After a sell-out in Spring 2020 and due to popular demand Stewart Lee returns to Royal & Derngate.
Snowflake / Tornado is a double-bill of two new 60 minute sets, performed back to back nightly from “the world’s greatest living stand-up” (Times). Including new material for 2022.
The first half, Snowflake, will be heavily rewritten in the light of the two years the show has been laid off, looking at how the Covid-Brexit era has impacted on the culture war declared on lovely woke snowflakes by horrible people.
The second half, Tornado, questions Stew’s position in the comedy marketplace after Netflix mistakenly listed his show as “reports of sharks falling from the skies are on the rise again. Nobody on the Eastern Seaboard is safe.”
