Dance & Physical Musicals Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 16 Nov: Romeo and Juliet, Emerge Fifth Anniversary Festival Week Two, The Mirror never lies
By TW Editorial | Published on Wednesday 9 November 2016
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
Romeo And Juliet | The Rose Playhouse | 15 Nov-10 Dec
Yes, yes, I know you’ve all seen Romeo and Juliet eight million times but a) everyone knows that you can see Shakespeare plays again and again and again because that’s just a rule of theatre and b) this looks like a really good and timely take on it, as the action is relocated to refugee camp. See the venue website here for more info.
Emerge Fifth Anniversary Festival Week Two | The Space | 15-19 Nov
It’s the second week of The Space’s festival of emerging dance and physical theatre stuff, which this week features work from Amy Foskett, Rhiannon Brace, Paola Napolitano, Alice Weber and Joe Garbett. For details and to book see this page here.
The Mirror Never Lies | The Cockpit | 14-18 Nov (pictured)
“A woman of a certain age and another era, addicted to collecting beautiful objects falls in love with a much younger man instead of his more “suitable” older uncle.” Adapted from Barbara Pym’s novel ‘The Sweet Dove Died’ and set in the sixties, this musical by Joe Giuffre and Juan Iglesias tells a story about the power of beauty.
