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

Open House London | various locations | 19-20 Sep
Open House London, if you’re not yet aware of it, is an annual festival of architecture and design, which gives you the chance to see inside buildings that you might not normally get to see, and learn more about London’s great yet perhaps not-too-well-known structures. It happens all over town, all over the weekend, so if you’re interested, you’ll have to plan your own tour; the website can help you with lots of info and guides, so take a look at it, here.

London Design Festival | various venues | 19-27 Sep
More design, but this time not just of the architectural type. There’s absolutely loads going on in this huge celebration of creativity, so again, you’ll have to navigate the programme of events and exhibitions for the stuff that piques your interest. Personally, I’m leaning towards anything that involves textiles at the moment, so that’s what I will be making a beeline for. Make your own beeline choices here.

The Big Bang #1 and #2 | Camden People’s Theatre | 19 + 20 Sep (pictured)
And so we return to tipping events at CPT’s festival of feminism Calm Down Dear (can you tell there’s a feminist in the house?) with ‘The Big Bang #1’ and ‘The Big Bang #2’. Each show offers a series of short, sharp, scratch-y performances – and by scratch-y, I mean in the early stages of development, not that they will make you itch. There’s also a third ‘Big Bang’ on 10 Oct, but that’s much too far away for me to think about right now… more info here.
