TGIF, and thank ‘G’ for the following TW-shortlisted cultural options…
TODAY’S COMEDY CHOICES
Laurence Clark – Inspired, Dugdale Arts Centre, 20 Sep
One time ThreeWeeks cover star (though you’ll need a good memory!) Laurence Clark, who has cerebral palsy, isn’t asking a lot, only that no one call him “inspirational” for doing ordinary things. In this show, commissioned by the London 2012 Festival and highly rated at last year’s Fringe, he light-heartedly explains why. Details and tickets here.
Tasty Combo – The A-Z Of Sketch, Etcetera Theatre, 20 Sep
Gracing the Camden Etcetera in the midst of a ‘Mini-London Sort Of Tour’, five-man Tasty Combo match a sharp, clever sketch to each letter of the alphabet. Details and tickets here.
TODAY’S MUSIC CHOICES
Dawn O’Porter’s Best Friends Ball, Bush Hall, 20 Sep
TV chatterbox Dawn Porter stages a charitable party-raid on Bush Hall in the name of Breast Cancer Care’s Pink Fridays campaign. Sophie Ellis Bextor and MC Laura Dockrill provide live accompaniment to a star-prize raffle called by Porter’s other half Chris O’Dowd, as will a secret BRIT-winning artist TBA on the night. Details and tickets here.

Routes, Royal Court Theatre, 20 Sep – 12 Oct
