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

The Society Of Strange | Wilton’s Music Hall | 31 Oct (pictured)
Mwah ha ha! It’s Hallowe’en! And if you like funny stuff, improv stuff and scary stuff, this is one place to spend your evening. “Sometimes hilarious, sometimes disturbing, The Society of Strange explores the thin line between comedy and horror – between this world and the next… Inspired by the works of Neil Gaiman, HP Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Algernon Blackwood, Jules Verne, HG Wells, Mary Shelley, MR James and many others”. Hurrah. Get thee to this link here.

Adam’s Hallowe’en Comedy Night – Fancy Dress Only | Camden Comedy Club | 31 Oct-1 Nov
Mwah ha ha! It’s still Hallowe’en! Here’s another place to spend your spookiful evening, or the evening after your evening, too, if you like, as, despite the fact that this is a Hallowe’en event, it’s also on on the 1 Nov. Two fabulous line ups, but you have to dress up to be allowed in. As the event name handily points out. See this page here.

Follow The Faun | Arts Theatre | 31 Oct-12 Nov
Mwah ha ha! It’s still Hallowe’en, even now. But I am more than aware that there are folks out there that don’t care, and would rather do something else that doesn’t involve ghouls. So how about this show, which is apparently a “revolutionary concept in musical theatre”. It’s a participatory event, an evocation of ancient Bacchanalian rites combined with disco and house music and all sorts of trippy hedonism. No seats; no interval; dress for dancing. See the venue website here for details.
