Cabaret Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 6 Sep: Two Man Show, Cabaret Whore Presents… La Poule Plombee, Tank
By TW Editorial | Published on Tuesday 30 August 2016
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
Two Man Show | Soho Theatre | 6 Sep-1 Oct
It looks like we have an EdFest 2016 related trio for you today. I didn’t necessarily intend it, but that’s how it turned out. First up, award-winning, critically lauded theatrical duo RashDash, with the show that impressed everyone this summer, including our reviewer, who coughed to the fact that it provoked a tear. A brave admission, and an indication of just how affecting this show is. See the venue website here for more info and to book.

And so to more award-winning stuff, this time in the cabaret category. ‘La Poule Plombee’ won a Stage Award at the Fringe this summer, and its not the first time that the team behind it – the long term partnership of performer Sarah-Louise Young and accompanist Michael Roulston – have won awards. Gosh, I used the word awards a lot in this, didn’t I? Anyway, don’t miss this performance, it’s a very, very five star show. For all the details, head this way.
Tank | New Diorama | 6-10 Aug
And finally, another show from this year’s Fringe that really impressed one of our reviewers, who described it as “a smart, engaging, well-performed show about how stories are told”. Taking NASA’s 1960s experiment to teach dolphins to speak English as its subject, it tries to reconstruct the truth of what happened, and analyse the we we interpret things and the politics of language.
