Three To See on 29 Apr: The 9th Annual London Improvathon, Underhill Rose, Gabriel Bisset-Smith Tells The Most Original And Funny Joke In The Universe
By TW Editorial | Published on Friday 22 April 2016
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
The 9th Annual London Improvathon | Lost Theatre | 29 Apr-1May
Hurrah, I love people pushing themselves to extremes for my entertainment, so of course I am going to recommend a fifty hour improv event, especially given all the very excellent performers involved in this: Mark Meer, Dan Starkey, Ruth Bratt, Cariad Lloyd, Sarah Louise Young, The Showstoppers, Austentatious, and many more. You can buy a ticket for the whole thing, or a ticket for a two hour time block. See this page here for all the info.
Underhill Rose | Green Note | 29 Apr
If rootsy Americana’s your thing, then this trio, Underhill Rose – Eleanor Underhill, Molly Rose Reed and Salley Williamson – might be one to look out for, with their music that promises three part harmonies, salty vocals, hammer claw banjo, harmonica, guitar and double bass. Have a look at this page here to have a listen to their material and to book tickets if you like the sound of them.
Gabriel Bisset-Smith Tells The Most Original And Funny Joke In The Universe | Soho Theatre | 29-30 Apr (pictured)
If you haven’t come across Gabriel Bisset-Smith as a solo performer, there’s still a chance you might have experienced his work as part of the rather highly acclaimed double act Guilt & Shame, which we’ve seen and loved up at that old edfringe in summers gone. Be prepared for “intergalactic travel, strange sexual positions, bizarre dance routines, Kanye West and unhinged murder”. Go to the venue website here for more info.
