The very best things to do this week include...
Beautiful Evil Things
When: Tuesday 28 February, 7:30pm
Where: Djanogly Theatre, Lakeside Arts
How much: £16
Described by The Guardian as a "hair-raising, heart-quickening whirl of myths”, this one women show is set to combine “physical story telling with cut-throat wit” to explore a different interpretation of Trojan War, and the possibility of an untold account associated with Greek mythological story telling. This isn’t one to be missed.
JOKES@THEJUICE- Stand Up Comedy
When: Wednesday 1 March, 7:30pm
Where: Juicebar
How Much: Free
If comedy is more up your street, why not visit Juicebar to join eight stand-up comedians to "enjoy hours of laughter." With an impressive line-up of acts and a plethora of different comedic approaches to performing stand up, there will be something for everyone! Juicebar is a perfect venue for meeting up with friends, partners, or a solo date to enjoy live comedy and grab a cocktails or two, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic!
Susanna: Metronome Piano Sessions
When: Friday 3 March, 7pm
Where: The Metronome
How much: £12 + booking fee (£5 + booking fee for students)
"Bold, original, and enrapturing." Sounds like music to your ears, right? Well, join Oslo-based Grammy winning Susanna this March in her intimate performance as part of the Metronome piano sessions. Susanna’s refreshing and minimalistic renditions of some of the most notorious, as well as outside of the mainstream, pop hits are bound to kick off your March the right way: immersed in the almost hypnotising sound of delicate keys and vocals.
Knowledge is Power Exhibition
When: Ongoing
Where: Lakeside Arts
How much: Free
This exhibition captures such an inherent part of Nottingham’s history and combines past and present attitudes around education. Knowledge is power was curated by consulting with academic research and historical reports regarding class, community, and adult education in the city of Nottingham during the 1960s. This accessible exhibition intends to show you “how adult education enriches the lives and culture of ordinary- and extraordinary-people” while helping to “build fairer and more democratic society.”
Patchworks of Places
When: Ongoing
Where: The Harley Gallery & Portland Collection
How much: Free
If you want to be more creativity involved in your community, why not contribute by producing a personalised bunting flag for the Harley Gallery community art installation? The gallery is giving you the opportunity to "get creative with the free materials and tools provided" in a beautiful space in the heart of Nottinghamshire.
We have a favour to ask
LeftLion is Nottingham’s meeting point for information about what’s going on in our city, from the established organisations to the grassroots. We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
