By TW Editorial | Published on Saturday 7 December 2013
TODAY IN LONDON singing anti-Santa Adam Kay, grumpy old Irish man Ed Byrne, sketch creatures Sheeps and indie-pop Mr and Mrs Tim Wheeler and Emmy The Great feature in the following TW-recommended events…
COMEDY: Ed Byrne – Roaring Forties, Eventim Apollo, 13 Dec
Having practiced being a ‘miserable old git’ since age 23, it’s at last time for Ed Byrne to toast his middle age with a long tall glass of… oh, bovril or something. Come join him, as he cries: “I am in my Forties. HEAR ME ROAR!”. Details and tickets here.
COMEDY: Amateur Transplants – Adam Kay’s Bum Notes, Bloomsbury Theatre, 13 Dec
‘Sweary Little Christmas’ star – and TW London’s newest interviewee – Adam Kay hits all the right notes (and some bum ones) as he croons and bawls a dark songbook tonic to cure any panto-over. Details and tickets here.
COMEDY: Sheeps Festive Bash, The Tabernacle, 13 Dec
Sketch fleet Sheeps milk the festive teat of all its funny yuletide goodness, staging this evening of Xmas entertainment, skits and awkward standing-around-holding-sausage-rolls, featuring guest revellers Tim Key, The Pin and Kieran Hodgeson. Details and tickets here.
MUSIC: Emmy The Great & Tim Wheeler – This Is Christmas, Koko, 13 Dec (pictured)
Indie she-and-him Emmy The Great and Tim Wheeler (he of Ash fame) present a hell of an alternative seasonal spectacular, singing all the classic jingle-bell hits, plus original ones from their collaborative LP ‘This Is Christmas’. Details and tickets here.
