What’s On – Twenty Something London Recommends
Words: Violet
This week our friends at Twenty Something London have chosen their top five picks of things to do this week. This time round they’ve got comedy nights, theatre plays, underground music nights, and lots more.
Music, books & comedy, Notting Hill Gate
This monthly comedy and music night brings together a highly anticipated line up including Amy Tan, the author of The Joy Luck Club, the bastion of London’s spoken word scene Malika Booker, and performing live the awesome singer How About Beth. No doubt an eclectic mix of talent we suggest you get involved in.
Comedy, Shoreditch High Street
For the comedy lovers out there you’ll be pleased to hear about Knock2Bag’s hilarious night at Rich Mix, on Bethnal Green Road. With an eclectic line-up of the UK’s most innovative comedians, like Will Adamsdale, Mae Martin, Nathaniel Metcalfe, Phil Wang, Harriet Dyer and Oram & Meetan, prepare for an explosive night full of humour, that’ll have you laughing for the rest of your week.
Phoenix is back at Hackney Downs
Theatre, Hackney Downs Studios
Fancy some theatre in the run up to Christmas? If yes, Phoenix, which enormously captivated the audience of their previous sell-out, is back by popular demand courtesy of Big House Theatre. Following the experience of a sixteen year old girl as she finds her way, the show draws on real life experiences from the self-taught individuals who’ve written, directed and acted in this shocking and humbling performance.
Party time, Bethnal Green
An underground music night is taking over Oval Space in east London, and the line up includes an exceptional array of live DJ sets from dance to electropunk sounds. If you want have an epic end of November in true rave-up style, this event is not to be missed.
Spoken Word & Music, Old Street
This Saturday an evening of dining, comedy, informative speeches and more is being held in the stirring Victorian surroundings of the Central Foundation Boys’ School in Old Street. Cue the return of School Dinners, a great thought-provoking entertainment event of wit, wisdom and live music from some of the nation’s finest and funniest minds.
