Comedy Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 2 Oct: Twist, We Are Bronte, Goodbear
By TW Editorial | Published on Monday 25 September 2017
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
Twist | Soho Theatre | 2-4 Oct
“His home is dust. His friends are few. His hands are as rough as the seas he has crossed. Humanising the anonymous plight of our generation, we follow one refugee’s desperate journey, buffeted between borders and bad company.” A radical adaptation of Dickens’ ‘Oliver Twist’ which brings the story very much into the now, re-imagining the eponymous hero as a migrant in search of sanctuary. See this page here for more info.
We Are Bronte | Greenwich Theatre | 2 Oct (pictured)
I’ve tipped this before and I will tip it again, if there’s another opportunity. Initially I was attracted to it because I know a lot about the Brontes and really like funny things, but it’s not just about me, this show has won oodles of praise from arts critics and other people whose opinions count just as much.

Goodbear | Soho Theatre | 2-5 + 7 Oct
And back to Soho for a date with a duo who have, like the show above, garnered much acclaim, and could pretty much definitely be regarded as TW favourites, even though we haven’t known them for very long in the grand scheme of things. If you like really funny sketch comedy performed by highly talented individuals with a great rapport, head this way to book your tickets.
