Children's Shows Comedy Theatre

And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
CHILDREN’S SHOW: The Three Pigs | Little Angel Theatre | 1-5 Jul
‘The Three Little Pigs’, ‘Susannah The Fanciful Sow’ and ‘The Old Woman And Her Pig’ are all brought to life with songs and storytelling by Rod Burnett and Storybox Theatre. Details and tickets here.
COMEDY: Steen Raskopoulos – Character Assassin | Soho Theatre | 1-11 Jul (pictured)
Back in London with his latest hour, it’s one man sketch show Steen Raskopoulos showing why he’s one of the most hotly tipped newcomers on the circuit. “It’s facial expressions and subtle gestures that help him become his characters – not costume changes”, said ThreeWeeks in this 5/5 review. “It’s in the nuance, not the overt”. Details and tickets here.
THEATRE: As Is | Trafalgar Studios | 1 Jul – 1 Aug
Set in New York in 1985, Rich, a young writer beginning to find success, has just broken up with his long term boyfriend Saul and started seeing someone else, when he discovers that he has contracted AIDS and returns to his former partner for comfort. This new staging at Trafalgar Studios, following a 2013 sell out run at the Finborough, marks 30 years since William M Hoffman’s powerful play was first staged in New York. Details and tickets here.
