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

Fagin’s Twist | The Place | 28 Sep-15 Oct
Avant Garde Dance Company present this rather interesting take on the Dickens classic ‘Oliver Twist’, the untold life story of one of literatures most famous – perhaps misunderstood? – villains. The show imagines the early days of Fagin, and the circumstances of birth that might have propelled him into a life of greed and criminality. See this page here for info.

Cream Pie | Camden People’s Theatre | 28-29 Sep
Another one from Calm Down Dear, this time a piece by Crossline Theatre taking a look at the effect that the modern ubiquity of pornography is having on sexual education, health, and relationships. It’s tricky and important subject matter, so good to see a show engaging with it, and benefiting from the verbatim opinions of porn-consumers, academics, industry professionals, and those of the millenial generation. See the venue website here for info.

Chris McCausland – Jesus Was Married And Look How It Turned Out For Him | Soho Theatre 29 Sep-1 Oct (pictured)
The excellently funny Chris McCausland’s new show is – as the title might suggest – all about being married and being a parent, but also, apparently, about owning “the world’s dumbest guide dog”, and solving all the world’s problems by offering “definitive proof as to why there is probably definitely no god”. That last bit seems pretty helpful. Head this way to book your tickets.
