By TW Editorial | Published on Sunday 30 October 2016
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
Bits Of Me Are Falling Apart | Soho Theatre | 2 Nov-3 Dec
You may already have noticed this show that’s on over at the Soho Theatre, because the fairly legendary Adrian Edmondson is the star and co-adapter of this show based on William Leith’s best seller. But, you know, just in case you missed it, somehow, here I am, pointing it out, for the good of your collective health. See the venue website here, to book.
Drones, Baby, Drones | Arcola Theatre | 2-26 Nov (pictured)
“As Barack Obama prepares to leave office, this world premiere double bill probes behind the scenes of America’s controversial drone wars, and asks what they will mean for our future.” Two plays, ‘This Tuesday’ and ‘The Kid’, explore some worrying issues. Head this way for more info.
Magnificence | Finborough Theatre | 25 Oct-19 Nov
I absolutely thought I had already tipped this production of Howard Brenton’s 1973 play right at the start of the run, and now it’s ten days in. I am highly confused. But never mind, I am tipping it now, and with good reason. One, it’s a great play, and two, its themes – police brutality, drug abuse, the deceptions of politicians, the social housing crisis, and whether violence can ever be justified for political ends – are still as relevant as ever. See this page here for details.
