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

Lands | New Diorama | 26-27 Nov (pictured)
“Leah and Sophie have been together, here, for a long time. They are happy here. But there’s a problem. There’s a massive f**king problem and soon they’re going to have to talk about it.” Two performers, a mini trampoline, a 1000 piece puzzle and an intimate study of a relationship on the brink of a collapse. This did ever so well up at the Fringe in the summer, don’t miss this opportunity to see the show. Head this way for info.

Scandinavian Christmas Market and Craft Central Christmas Market | Rotherhithe and Millwall | 24-26 Nov
I might be being a bit optimistic about the chances of folk making both of these in one day, but they are in fairly neighbouring areas of London, so you never know, some people might be that dedicated. Anyway, this tip is directly and definitely born of the dread panic that’s currently running through my not-on-schedule-to-be-ready-for-Christmas self. It all used to be so much easier, these days everything good is gone by December. Anyway, I need gifts, you need gifts, and these two look to me like two of the best ways to find some nice non-high street ones this weekend. Information here for the Scandinavian one and here for the arty one.

Miniaturists 66 | Arcola Theatre | 26 Nov
And it’s back to a TW favourite thing, that happens a lot, and which we’re never going to stop tipping, frankly. The latest edition of Miniaturists is on at Arcola this week, with as ever, a quality collection of small but perfectly formed plays, and the writers behind this month’s crop of short gems are Milly Thomas, Camilla Whitehill, Katie Burnett, Will Bourdillon and Declan Feenan. You can head this-a-way to book your tickets.
