THIS WEEK IN CULTURE + THE CULTURE BUSINESS
Today in London: Sunday 2 December 2012
It may be Fritter Day in the realm of novelty days, but that doesn’t mean London’s culture-loving population has to while (aka ‘fritter’) away its Sunday doing nothing bar sautéing spam.
Here are the reasons why:
TODAY’S COMEDY CHOICES
An Event Of Some Kind XVIII, Black Heart Camden, 2 Dec
Co-reigning comic entities, nonsensical Canadian Tony Law and talkative loon Simon Munnery frequent AEOSK’s 28th edition tonight, as do faux wino Loretta Maine, exhibitionist Holly Burn and smart-talking Tom Webb. Tickets to witness all the above in the same place, at approximately the same time, are available to buy here.
Max & Ivan’s Roffle Club, Leicester Square Theatre, 2 Dec (pictured)
Sketchy characters Max & Ivan compere a promising comic collective tonight, initiating formidable improv quintet Noise Next Door, bookish comedienne Jessie Cave, pop mathematician/magician Nick Mohammed, prop-toting perfectionist Ben Target and, last but by no means zeta, sartorial man-troupe the Beta Males, to their almost-monthly Roffle Club. Tickets purchasable via this page.
