And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…

Urban Makers East Christmas Market | Mile End Ecology Pavilion | 10-11 Dec
You know, if you are someone who celebrates Christmas and still haven’t started your Christmas shopping, don’t panic, because look, a fabulous Christmas market is on in East London this weekend, full of all sorts of interesting and different items made by a host of talented designer-makers. See this website here for all the info.

A Christmas Carol | Canada Water Culture Space | 6-17 Dec (pictured)
Sorry, but we’re going to be recommending quite a few Scroogey shows over the next couple of weeks, because we can’t help but love ‘A Christmas Carol’. This one is very much a family show, suitable for 7+, and is a modern and lively adaptation of the Dickens classic featuring lots of singing and audience interaction. Click this link for details.

Come Rhyme With Me | Ovalhouse | 10 Dec
Dean Atta and Deanna Rodger host an evening of spoken word from poets, lyricists and musicians. On tonight’s menu are some rather familiar names: writer, filmmaker and theatre maker Paula Varjak, playwright, poet and screenwriter Sabrina Mahfouz, and Toby Thompson, who is “a writer who doesn’t write anything down, a musician who doesn’t play an instrument, and an artist who doesn’t use paint”. Head this way for more.
