Comedy Musicals Theatre ThisWeek In London
Three To See on 9 Nov: Vampire Hospital Waiting Room, Mike Wozniak, The Platypus Playpen
By TW Editorial | Published on Monday 2 November 2015
And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
Vampire Hospital Waiting Room | Above The Arts | 9-21 Nov
This critically acclaimed (by us, at least) 2013 Edinburgh Festival hit (see our reviewer’s dotingly impressed assessment here) makes its gruesome way to the Arts Theatre to delight audiences with its comic B-movie styled music-infused tale. Dark yet funny; just what you need when the nights are drawing in. See the venue website here for more info.
Mike Wozniak – One Man Cat Band | Invisible Dot | 9-14 Nov (pictured)
Another Edinburgh favourite now, and in fact appearing as part of Invisible Dot’s ‘From The Fringe’ strand with his much lauded 2015 Festival offering. A you may well know, this engaging comedian specialises in vivid storytelling, and is pretty much guaranteed to provide quality entertainment. And if that doesn’t persuade you, then perhaps his facial hair will. Just take a look at that lovely moustache. See this page here for more info and to book.
The Platypus Playpen | The Harrison | 9 Nov
Well, you know, you could regard this regular Monday gig as a potentially hit and miss option – a bunch of comedians trying out their new material on you – but on the other hand, you could regard it as a great opportunity to see some really good comedians at a very reasonable price (the show is free with a collection at the end but you can pay five pounds to guarantee entry). The resident MCs – Garret Millerick, Chris Betts and Pierre Novellie – are all fabulous, and amongst the acts lining up on this occasion are some real TW favourites – Dane Baptiste and Abigoliah Schamaun, to name but two.
