Film Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 25 Sep: The Birds, Doc n Roll Festival, Roaring Trade
By TW Editorial | Published on Friday 18 September 2015
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
The Birds | Leicester Square Theatre | 24 Sep-17 Oct
Ooh, this sounds scary, which is good, really, because it is, after all, supposed to be a thriller. Scripted by Conor McPherson, based on Daphne Du Maurier’s novelette of the same name (which of course also inspired Hitchcock’s film) this production offers a post-apocalyptic take on the story, setting it in a world where society has collapsed. See more info and book tickets here.
Doc n Roll Festival | Picturehouse Central | 25 Sep-4 Oct
This super festival of music documentaries kicks off its programme of events at the recently opened Picturehouse Central today, with the UK premiere of ‘Morphine: Journey Of Dreams’. For more info on this, and all the other great films showing over the next few days, see this page here.
Roaring Trade | Park Theatre | 23 Sep-24 Oct (pictured)
Steve Thompson’s ‘Roaring Trade’, a play set in the stressy and ambitious world of banking, won critical acclaim on its first outing. This revival comes from a very newly established young theatre company, who look as though they are preparing a lusty and energetic production. See the venue’s website here for info and tickets.
