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

Mixed Grill | New Diorama | 14-15 May (pictured)
“After going out for some Caribbean food, Alix thinks that Lewis should learn how to make a proper Caribbean curry, after all, he is a quarter mixed race, and really should connect more with his roots.” ‘Mixed Grill’ uses food as a metaphor for the strength in diversity, exploring what it means to be of mixed heritage, and how your geographical location can have an impact on your identity. See the venue website here for info.

Dough! | ArtsDepot | 14 May
And something else with a foodie theme, this one aimed at families, and with a multi-cultural feel, focusing as it does on the dough that creates all manner of different products – naan bread, croissants, dumplings and chapattis. Frankie needs to resolve a doughy mess that’s causing chaos in her kitchen and must find help in an unfamiliar place where everything tastes, smells and feels different. For ages 3+, click here for details.

Sharp Teeth – The London Edition | Theatre503 | 14 May
Well, I didn’t intend it, but title-wise that kind of completes the trio quite nicely, doesn’t it? Sharp teeth with which to chew up the previous two tips. Well, maybe not. Anyway, just forget that now, and focus on the show itself. Sharp Teeth Theatre are from Bristol, and have been running these nights of theatre, storytelling, poetry and music there for years. The concept comes to London with four different, intriguing acts lined up. See this page here for more details.
