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

Danny And The Deep Blue Sea | Theatre N16 | 3-14 Apr
A production of award winning US writer John Patrick Shanley’s 1983 play depicting the unlikely love story between two social misfits, set in a run down bar in the Bronx. It’s one of those plays where not much seems to happen… and yet, it does. I feel rather hopeful that this will be a good production of it. See this page here to book your tickets.

Sensational Butterflies | Natural History Museum | 24 Mar-11 Sep (pictured)
This new exhibition opened at the Natural History Museum a week or so ago, and it runs until September, so there’s no rush, but I thought it might be a rather nice thing for children, and they are at a loose end at the moment, what with it being the Easter holidays and everything. You get to wander amongst free flying moths and butterflies from all over the world, and get close up views through magnifiers and microscopic images. Actually, not sure I need to take the kids, sounds like a nice day out for one. Me. See the NHM website here for more info.

Bach Orchestral Suites – The Feinstein Ensemble | King’s Place | 3 Apr
If you are a fan of Bach, then King’s Place is definitely the place to be right now, because there’s a whole weekend of Bach related concerts happening. There are about ten different events, so have a look at the list here, but I chose this one from The Feinstein Ensemble which features work by Telemann and Handel, as well as by Bach. See this page here for info and to book.
