And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
THEATRE: Alice’s Adventures Underground | The Vaults | 9 Apr – 30 Aug
An immersive theatrical take on ‘Alice In Wonderland’ sends you down the rabbit hold with Alice, allowing you to choose where you head in the world of the book created underneath Waterloo Station. Smoke a pipe with the Caterpillar, drink tea with the Mad Hatter, and try to avoid losing your head to the Red Queen. Details and tickets here.
THEATRE: Carmen Disruption | Almeida Theatre | 10 Apr – 23 May
The UK premiere of Simon Stephens’ play, which reimagines Bizet’s opera Carmen and the possibility of love in a fractured urban world. In the opulent grandeur of a European city, a renowned singer abandons the opera house for the truth of the streets. Details and tickets here.
THEATRE: Hard Graft | Ovalhouse | 8-11 Apr (pictured)
Staged as a work-in-progess at the Ovalhouse last October, ‘Hard Graft’ now returns to the venue in its finished form. Writer David Sheppeard investigates how much can change between one generation of a family and the next and the lengths we go to bridge the divide. Details and tickets here.
