By TW Editorial | Published on Friday 21 March 2014
TW’s tipped events TODAY IN LONDON feature Parental Advisory rappers RATKING and Earl Sweatshirt, superior humourist (and nice bloke) Tom Wrigglesworth, and a polarised new play by award-winning writer Vivienne Franzmann…
COMEDY: Tom Wrigglesworth – Utterly At Odds With The Universe, Leicester Square Theatre, 27-29 Mar
Summarised by the award-and-plaudits-winning Wrigglesworth in his recent ThisWeek interview as “80 minutes of hilarity, then ten minutes of an emotional free fall”, ‘Utterly At Odds…’ looks back on Tom’s relationship with his grandfather, incorporating poignant tapings of the two’s convos dating back to his childhood days. Details here.
MUSIC: Earl Sweatshirt/RATKING, O2 Academy Islington, 27 Mar (pictured)
The prodigal son of notorious hip hop horde Odd Future, Earl Sweatshirt cuts loose his dark and anarchic first solo LP ‘Doris’, following an opening set by NYC rap pack RATKING. Details and tickets here.
THEATRE: Pests, Royal Court Theatre, 27 Mar – 4 Apr
Ellie Kendrick (aka the BBC’s ‘Anne Frank’ circa 2009) and Sinéad Matthews play Rolly and Pink, sisters chained to their dark past, and to their co-dependent and oft-parasitic relationship in ‘Pests’, a play by high-flying Clean Break writer Vivienne Franzmann. Details and tickets here.
