Oh Yes Oh No | Camden People’s Theatre | 26 Apr-11 May (pictured)
The very excellent Louise Orwin heads back your way with this follow up to the brilliant ‘A Girl And A Gun’, but be warned, it’s not for the faint-of-heart: “This is a show about having sexual fantasies that might not align with your politics. It’s about trying to understand what you want, and wondering how the fuck to ask for it. It’s also about fucking. And wondering how the fuck to make a show about fucking.” So there you fucking have it. See this page here for more.
Out Of This World | Peacock Theatre | 1-3 May
One from the file marked “hard to classify by genre”, this, yet oh-so-worth-seeing, so don’t miss this part psychological thriller, part heart-rending medical drama, staged by the acclaimed Mark Murphy using his signature combination of special effects and aerial choreography. It tells the story of a woman’s descent medically induced coma, and a subsequent fight for life. Click here for info.
Occupational Hazards | Hampstead Theatre | 28 Apr-3 Jun
