Children's Shows Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 27 Jul: I Am A Tree, Chopping Chillies + Nell Gwynn’s Laid Bare, Christopher Nibble
By TW Editorial | Published on Thursday 20 July 2017
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
I Am A Tree | Ovalhouse | 27-29 Jul (pictured)
Earlier this year we tipped an early, work-in-progress showing of this new show by TW favourite Jamie Wood, and I see every reason to tip it again now, ahead of a run in Edinburgh in August. “The show is something else entirely”, runs the blurb. “A dance party with ghosts, in a forest, in a theatre. A hopping ritual. An invitation to drink deep: to face the shadows that growl on your insides and laugh big.” Head this way to find out more.
Chopping Chillies/Nell Gwynn’s Laid Bare | Colour House Theatre | 27 Jul
‘Chopping Chillies’ is also something I have tipped before, and I am happy to tip it again because it’s brilliant, but for those of you who are getting a bit tired of me re-tipping, you can see this as part of a double bill with another show that I haven’t tipped before, but which I have heard great things about. I reckon you’re in for an excellent night’s entertainment, click here for info and to book.
Christopher Nibble | Little Angel Theatre | 27-30 Jul
Let’s finish the day with a show for the little ones, because those school holidays are still ongoing, and in fact will still be ongoing in a month’s time. Yes. Anyway, this looks rather a nice treat for your 2-7 year olds, an adaptation of the picture book by Charlotte Middleton, staged by Topsy Turvey Theatre with the help of storytelling, handmade puppets and original music. See the venue website here for details.
