TODAY IN LONDON the universally famed Cirque Du Soleil, new indie arrival Tom The Lion, and party hardy comedian Tom Webb feature in the following TW-recommended events…
CIRCUS: Cirque du Soleil – Quidam, Royal Albert Hall, 6 Jan – 16 Feb
Once the NYE madness is over, why not get the year started with the super-lithe Cirque du Soleil who are putting on this luxe mix of physical expertise and colourful design at the Royal Albert Hall, inspired to new heights by the idea of ‘individuality’ and “a young girl’s escape into a world of imagination”. Details and tickets here.
COMEDY: Party Piece Dalston, The Ophelia, 6 Jan
As the one and only host of this scintillating (and pay-nothing) comic showcase, chipper charisma ball Tom Webb invites guests inc Owain Paciuszko, Sarah Campbell, Madge Hooks and Alan Jones to take the mic and flaunt their finest party tricks. Details here.
MUSIC: Tom The Lion, Rough Trade East, 6 Jan
Jeff Buckley-esque singer-writer Tom The Lion‘s mysterious and mellifluous debut LP, ‘Sleep’, has its spiritual awakening – and is hereby released – this evening, to the sound of a live, wristband-essential set at Brick Lane vinyl mecca Rough Trade East. Details here.
