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

Steen Raskopoulos – You Know The Drill | Soho Theatre | 2-3 Sep (pictured)
We have had our beady eye on the much lauded and award-winning/nominated Steen Raskopoulos ever since, back in 2014, one of our review team up in Edinburgh gave him a five star review. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a chance to see this particular show when it was on at Underbelly this summer, which is gutting, because I’ve heard much to suggest that it’s brilliant. Thank goodness for the chance to see it now. See the venue website here for more info.

Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again | Shoreditch Town Hall | 31 Aug-2 Sep
This, on the other hand, is a show we did see this summer in Edinburgh, and which also got a five star review. To be fair, one might expect a high standard from this production of Alice Birch’s acclaimed play, given that, as established, it’s an acclaimed play, produced by the RSC, and features a talented cast. Head this way to book your tickets.

Britten In Brooklyn | Wilton’s Music Hall | 31 Aug-17 Sep
This has quite a lot of familiar TV faces in it, but that’s not why I’m attracted to the notion of seeing it, it just sounds like a very interesting subject for a play. As the title explains, it’s focused on Benjamin Britten – but also WH Auden, Carson McCullers and Gypsy Rose Lee – on the eve of World War II, and is by acclaimed playwright Zoe Lewis.
