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

Rowena Haley – My Green Astra | Etcetera Theatre | 23 Nov
I have a soft spot for northerners, because I am a northerner myself, and, marooned down here in this flat southern landscape, I yearn for the peaks and dales, the grimy mill towns and the soothing sound of a Lancashire accent. Which is why I hope to head to the Etcetera Theatre to hear the musical comedy stylings of guitar-toting Boltonian Rowena Haley, and I hope you will too. See this page here for more info and to book tickets.

Licensed To Ill | Camden People’s Theatre | 23 Nov-12 Dec
I suspect this isn’t one for the young and easily offended, given there’s a 16+ limit on it, and it doesn’t really surprise me, as this show is all about Mike D, MCA and AdRock, aka the Beastie Boys. Described as a “hiphop history tour and a playful exploration of the rules of cultural appropriation”, it’s the work of Simon Maeder and Adam el Hagar, who’ve combined rap, Dj-ing, physical comedy and puppetry to create an innovative and eclectic piece of theatre. See the venue website here for more info.

Max and Ivan – The End | Soho Theatre | 23-28 Nov
TW favourites Max and Ivan make their way to the Soho Theatre for a run of their very highly acclaimed 2015 show ‘The End’, an epic comedy sketch piece about the inhabitants of a doomed seaside town. The award nominated duo have never failed to impress our reviewers so I have no doubt they will impress you with their vivid storytelling and convincing characters. All the gen right here.
