Buried Child

Buried Child

So – a couple of Sam Shepard plays in the West End doesn’t mean the Americans are coming! Am I right? Retarded trailer trash and hill billy red necks is not the US of A that I know and love. Hell – I’ve seen Ed Harris in the films and I know what it’s like […]

7th Heaven Halloween Special

7th Heaven Halloween Special

No Kang and Kodos here folks, this isn’t the Simpsons. The night was, however, filled with vampires, cobwebs and facemasks, obviously.  7th Heaven’s parties are becoming quite a big deal in London and we were honoured to be on last week’s guest-list. Russell Kane (comedian), Lauryn Goodman (blogger), and various Goggle Box icons walked among […]

Julius Dein – Viral Vid God ‘n Guru

Julius Dein – Viral Vid God ‘n Guru

One to watch out for in 2017, Julius Dein is headed for Forbes’ list of The World’s Most Powerful People – so long as he stays away from hookers and drugs. Yes, he was in Amsterdam recently, but it was for business not leisure. He’s such a good boy he even invited his wonderful mother […]

Perhaps unsurprisingly the organiser and founder of Snaphappen, Craig Fox, had enticed a […]

Rio in Dalston

Rio in Dalston

In the 1960 Rome Olympics, the world was introduced to one Cassius Clay: an 18 year old fighter with the charisma to win over the crowds, and the talent take home a Gold medal in the men’s light heavyweight boxing. Few could have imagined what lay ahead for the man who would rename Muhammad Ali and […]

Happy birthday Piano Works!

Happy birthday Piano Works!

By Sophie Parkinson Happy birthday Piano Works! Not many of us are fortunate enough to remember our first birthday – the one where your parents are still really excited about you being around, (trust me, they still are – ed) and make a big deal of it – but the celebrations last night at the […]

Where’s Wally?

Where’s Wally?

By Hannah Phillips We could start by joking that The View from The Shard is the perfect platform for spotting wallies wandering around the city on any given day of the week. But this month, it really is the case as Where’s Wally and his fellow red-and-white-striped friends take over for some Easter festivities. From […]

The Cause

The Cause

By Hannah Phillips Saturday morning, in the local bookies: The Miracle Stags vs. the Black Hand. Who would you put your money on? Jeremy James’ debut play at Jermyn Street Theatre is one of zealotry, following two contrasting conspirator groups (four young Hungarian artists vs. Serbian nationalists) working towards the same cause – to kill […]
