Presenting “Charley Boorman Live UK Tour 2011”
A fantastic night out ~ the inside story from the man himself!
The star of 'Long Way Round', 'Long Way Down', 'Race To Dakar' and 'By Any Means' is live on stage at a theatre near you! With big video screens and some amazing clips of his adventures - some of which have never been made public - this night with Charley will be one to remember! If you liked any of Charley's TV shows - this is going to be your classic night out. Get the opportunity to ask questions and chat to Charley - as well as get your book or DVD autographed at the end of the night.... This is Boorman close up - no mistake!
All of this is being pulled together with one of the few people who'd dare to ask those 'awkward' questions, Billy Biketruck. Billy will be your host for the show - interviewing Charley and getting to the nitty gritty. Be shocked at the questions - and be doubly shocked at some of the answers!!!
Check out the tour dates opposite. Remember you can contact the theatre directly on the number provided - this may be your best bet, especially if the online ticket sales people say they are all sold out - they may not be! Go and book early before they all go. This might be a nice early Christmas present!
Last years theatre tour was a great success, so this year we're trying to bring Charley to other locations, including extra dates in Scotland and Ireland. There are a handful of other dates to be confirmed - these will be added as they are finalised.
Finally, remember you can see Charley's show at this years Isle of Man TT Festival.
Check out the Gaiety Theatre on the 3rd of June - This will be Charley's first TT - so come and see Charley lose his TT Cherry! http://www.gov.im/villagaiety/whatson.xml
Charley Boorman Live Tour – 2010 Reviews
The Charley Boorman Live Tour - Palace Theatre Manchester - March 20, 2010
"With a host of impressive acting credits now behind him, including early roles in Deliverance, Excalibur and Hope And Glory, Charley Boorman now seems set to throw himself into as many treacherous and potentially life-threatening adventures imaginable - all so that we don't have to. Returning with some pretty incredible tales and photos, The Charley Boorman Live Tour is just about the most interesting and entertaining collection of holiday snaps you're ever likely to view.
Having successfully survived a motorcycle trip across the globe with fellow actor and best friend Ewan McGregor back in 2004, riding through the treacherous terrain of countries such as Russia, Kazakhstan and Mongolia, the resulting TV programme remains one of the more interesting travel series to have aired during the last few years, as well as a bestselling book.
It also inspired Boorman to undertake similar trips, not always including McGregor, with this evening's event at the plush Palace Theatre a fine venue to showcase the amusing and always entertaining stories culled from his journeys. The show is amusing, entertaining and inspiring. If the reality of crossing the globe or offroading on a motorbike has never really appealed, some of Boorman's stories and pictures might just briefly change your mind."

The Charley Boorman Live Tour - Grand Opera House, York - March 10, 2010
"...His live show in York on Monday was the story of these journeys (Long Way Round, Long Way Down, By Any Means), plus one or two others, which he recalled in a highly entertaining, funny and enthusiastic manner, using a chat-show format with a genial host to compere the evening. With the help of video clips, slides and crazy tales from the road, the wide-eyed adventurer and his part-time fellow traveller … ensured we had an engaging evening. We were introduced to Igor, his Kalashnikov rifle and his guitar …and also the delights of a Mongolian testicle soup."Alex Calnen
