MUSIC: Bert Jansch Tribute, Royal Albert Hall, 3 Dec

THEATRE: Ushers, Hope Theatre, 3-31 Dec
With music and lyrics by Yiannis Koutsakos and James Oban, two frontrunners in @westendproducer’s ‘Search For A Twitter Composer’ contest, new musical ‘Ushers’ spotlights, for once, a theatre’s stagiest staff, its front-of-house team. Details and tickets here.

THEATRE: Drawing The Line, Hampstead Theatre, 3 Dec – 11 Jan 2013
A ‘sweeping’ new piece from the people behind 2012’s sell-out ’55 Days’, ‘Drawing The Line’ sketches a picture of 1940s India under British rule. In it, a judge is sent to divide the sub-continent into two new Sovereign Dominions, and finds himself plunged into a whirlpool of political intrigue and illicit passions. Details and tickets here.
