MUSIC: Mexrrissey – Mexico Goes Morrissey | Barbican | 25 Apr (pictured)
Do you ever find yourself listening to The Smiths and think to yourself, “You know, this is nice, but it could do with being a whole lot more Mexican”? Well at last your prayers are answered! Camilo Lara, of the brilliant Mexican Institute Of Sound, and a specially formed band have come together to rework Morrissey’s hits. Details and tickets here.

THEATRE: The Vote | Donmar Warehouse | 24 Apr – 7 May
Set in a fictional London polling station, ‘The Vote’ dramatises the final 90 minutes before the polls close in this year’s General Election. On the actual night of the election, the final performance of the play will be broadcast live on More4 at the exact time it portrays. Tickets for that show are already gone (via ballot, of course) but you have plenty of opportunity to catch it before we go to the polls. Details and tickets here.
