Dr John Cooper Clarke - Dr. John Cooper Clarke 'Have It'

Wednesday, October 7, 2026 - Southend Palace, Southend-on-Sea

Dr John Cooper Clarke launches his Have It live run at Southend Palace on 7 October 2026, opening a stretch of theatre and hall shows across the UK and Ireland. This Southend gig sets the tone for the tour before it moves on to Poole Lighthouse a few days later. Fans can expect Clarke working through his trademark spoken word and storytelling style in a setting that suits his tightly wound delivery. With no support listed, the focus stays entirely on Clarke on stage for this first outing of the series.
