And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…

COMEDY: Aisling Bea – Plan Bea | The Phoenix | 31 Jul (pictured)
Aisling Bea previews her latest show at the Phoenix Fringe. It’s a show “which, in March, was loosely supposed to be about childhood dreams, death, confidence and success”. What’s it about now? Well, I think you know how to find out. Details and tickets here.

COMEDY: Nish Kumar – Long Word… Long Word… Blah Blah Blah… I’m So Clever | The Phoenix | 31 Jul
If you’re already at the Phoenix to see Aisling Bea, it would be foolish not to catch Nish Kumar as well. You don’t want to be considered foolish by a faceless writer of cultural tips, do you? No, of course not. Details and tickets here.

THEATRE: Stuart Bowden | Battersea Arts Centre | 31 Jul
Stuart Bowden’s latest show promises “live music, vigorous dance moves, understandable words and a fair bit of profound (probably life changing) body movement”. Can he deliver? I would wager that he can. Details and tickets here.
