From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Steve Coogan is set to tour the UK with a new Alan Partridge live show.
The Partridge character originated in the Radio 4 comedy series On the Hour in 1992, and has subsequently featured in multiple TV series, one-off specials, and a feature film.
Coogan can currently be seen as the character in the second series of This Time with Alan Partridge, a comedic parody of the BBC’s The One Show format.
Tickets for the live stage show, entitled Stratagem, will be available to purchase here from 9am this Saturday (29 May).
According to the show description: “Alan Partridge made the welcome decision to embrace his audience in person (although not physically, because, you know…).
“In May 2021, Partridge announced a UK tour, set to bring fans face to face with their hero (albeit with heavy security in between) from April 2022.”
Stratagem isn’t the first time Coogan has performed live in his Partridge guise.
He appeared as the hapless Norfolk DJ in 2008, as part of a tour entitled Steve Coogan as Alan Partridge and other Less Successful Characters, in which Partridge played the role of a life coach.
