Dance & Physical Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 3 May: I Have Been Here Before, Cooked, Wilton’s Strike! Dance Festival
By TW Editorial | Published on Tuesday 26 April 2016
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
I Have Been Here Before | Jermyn Street | 3-21 May (pictured)
You may be familiar with the works of JB Priestley – at the very least, I’d expect that most of you have heard of ‘An Inspector Calls’ – but this is one of his less frequently produced works, despite the fact that it’s one of the esteemed playwright’s ‘time plays’, alongside with the arguably more-famous ‘Time And The Conways’, and ‘Dangerous Corner’. I reckon this will be good, and it’s a, ahem, timely revival. See this page here for details.
Cooked | Bread and Roses Theatre | 3-14 May
This sounds fun, a dark comedy about a celebrity ‘chef’ who can’t actually cook, from the creative team at ScotchBonnet Theatre. Expect a grimy and funny exploration of celebrity culture, and how to “get even in the kitchen”. See the venue website here to book your tickets.
Wilton’s Strike! Dance Festival | Wilton’s Music Hall | 3-5 May
This short festival of the physical premieres six new works by emerging artists, and thus represents a great chance to see the next big things (well, creatives) at the start of their careers. All the pieces explore the theme of memory, in a variety of ways. This page here offers a synopsis of each of the six creations (there are two per show), so take a look and see which take your fancy. And get a move on, tickets appear to be selling fast.
