Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 11 Mar: A Dark Night In Dalston, lulu v.3 // who do lulu? you do lulu?, Made In India
By TW Editorial | Published on Saturday 4 March 2017
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
A Dark Night In Dalston | Park Theatre | 7 Mar-1 Apr
I chose this because it’s by playwright Stewart Permutt, whose stuff I like, and because it’s got a very interesting premise – a young, observant Jewish man from the other side of town is attacked in Dalston on a Friday evening, and he ends up spending the night at the home of a female protector. Stars established TV face Michelle Collins, see this page here for info.
lulu v.3 // who do lulu? you do lulu? | Camden People’s Theatre | 11-12 Mar
Another choice from the excellent Sprint Festival, described as a “a psycho-geographic performance-slash-installation about sex and loneliness in digital hookup culture, inspired by one of western drama’s most controversial femmes-fatales”. Contemporary, queer, feminist revisioning – definitely one for the diary. Click here.
Made In India | Soho Theatre | 8-25 Mar
Three women meet in a surrogacy clinic in Gujarat; one is desperate for a chance of motherhood, the second is looking for a lifeline out of poverty, while the third is just keen to oversee a transaction. Expect good things from this new play about “birth and motherhood in a brave new world”. For details, see the venue website here.
