THEATRE
[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”” width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]
Das Spiel: Are You Part of the Game? | Ovalhouse | Until 16 May | 7:45pm (2pm Saturday Matinee) | £10
The Game has found you. As you read this you are becoming part of it.
The Game reaches into your past and creates the present. It makes you comfortably uncomfortable. The players are different every night and therefore The Game is different every night.
You are part of The Game.
This is a psychological immersive theatre show, blurring the lines of performance and reality by illusionist and theatre-maker Philipp Oberlohr.

Eggs Collective Get A Round | BAC | Until 16 May | 9pm | £12
Pinned on the arse-end of a night out, Eggs Collective Get A Round is a show with lipstick on its teeth and Wotsits on its face. A wayward exploration of friendship, kindness and belonging that spills out towards its audience.
In a world that tells us we are not rich, thin or successful enough, Eggs Collective wonder if the basic principles of a good night out might just make the world a better place.

I am Joint Editor at To Do List. I like: nice pubs, film marathons, not doing real marathons, bad comedy, plays/musicals with shorter second halves, and the Oxford comma.
