😂 Cally Beaton: Namaste Motherf*ckers - The Hat Factory Arts Centre, Luton


Time: 20:00 - 22:00

*Now a Sunday Times best seller​*

🤩 ABOUT
Namaste Motherf*ckers is the new show from Cally Beaton (QI, Live at the Apollo) - a quick-witted, unexpected and unapologetic insight into life in midlife.

Combining Cally’s comedic and storytelling prowess with extracts from her provocative, stereotype-busting book of the same name, the show has at its heart her own story of radical reinvention – taking her from meetings in boardrooms to treading the boards, thanks to a chance conversation with the late, great Joan Rivers.

A funny show about a deadly serious subject, Namaste Motherf*ckers is a celebration of and for the female of the species. Invisible no more.

The show has just celebrated an Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025 sell-out, and it will include a Q&A and meet-and-greet with Cally (who knows, Jeff the wonder dog may even be there too).

📖 HISTORY OF THE FRENCH HORN
The French Horn in Steppingley is a historic village pub with deep roots in Bedfordshire’s countryside charm. Though its exact origins are unclear, it is recognized as a building of some antiquity, having been refaced with a modern front.Adjacent to the pub is a large old thatched barn, traditionally believed to be the former tithe barn, adding to the establishment's historical significance.

Local lore suggests that the pub may have been named in honor of John Schorne, a 13th-century rector of Steppingley renowned for his healing abilities and credited with imprisoning the devil in a boot—a tale that inspired the Jack-in-the-Box toy.

In more recent history, The French Horn gained attention when celebrity chef Jean-Christophe Novelli launched it as his second gastropub in 2008, offering both formal dining and a casual bar area.

Today, The French Horn continues to serve as a welcoming spot for both locals and visitors, blending its rich history with the comforts of a traditional English pub.
