Three To See on 14 Feb: Out, Norris and Parker – See You At The Gallows, Worst Date Ever
By TW Editorial | Published on Tuesday 7 February 2017
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
Nebula / OUT| The Yard | 14-18 Feb
This double bill, on as part of The Yard’s Now festival of new and radical work, looks excellent. Nebula “examines the liminality of being mixed race and blends it with the idea that we are all seeking to find our place and our space”, while OUT seeks to challenge homophobia and transphobia within Caribbean communities, reclaiming dancehall and celebrating queerness. See this page here for info.
Norris and Parker – See You At The Gallows | Soho Theatre | 14-18 Feb (pictured)
This “sordid soiree full of wild, dark and ridiculous sketches, characters and songs woven within a narrative of underlying aggression” made a very strong impression on our reviewer up at the Edinburgh Fringe last summer, and I sense that these two are destined for great things, so I suggest you pop along and soak up some of their brilliance. Head this way for details.
Worst Date Ever | Camden People’s Theatre | 14 Feb
Ah, you thought I’d forgotten it was Valentines, didn’t you? Well, no I hadn’t, but confess I am a bit of a curmudgeon about it all (it’s for single people to declare their feelings, not for couples to spend miserable evenings at cramped tables in mediocre overbooked restaurants). But here’s something that’s very appropriate for killjoys like me, the anti-Valentine, if you will. This will be fun, and funny, unlike the dates everyone else is going on. Click here.
