The Review - THEATRE

In the wings

• THE biggest collar in showbiz comes to NW3 this month. That’s right: Harry Hill, triple Bafta-winning comedian, will return to the Hampstead Comedy Club at the Pembroke Castle, 150 Gloucester Avenue, Primrose Hill. The shows on September 15,16 and 17 are compered by the inimitable Ivor Dembina and start at 8.30pm. Tickets are £10.50.

• FURTHER asserting its status as the “greenest” theatre in London, Dalston’s Arcola Theatre is hosting a special day dedicated to all things environmental.
This Sunday, alongside swapshops and Middle Eastern drumming circles, there’s the curiously billed “eco-clowning, green networking and web workshops”. It’s followed by a screening of Nick Broomfield’s A Time Comes and a discussion with the activists.

• JUSTINE and Beverly kill scum for cash. That’s the premise behind new one-act black comedy wekillpimps.com, at the Hen and Chickens Theatre, premiering this week. The assassins, down to their last few bullets, can be found at the Islington pub venue until September 12.

• THERE are eight days left to catch the infectious musical version of Madame Bovary, Upstairs at the Gatehouse Theatre in Highgate. The classic tale of the cuckold country doctor is retold by some of the capital’s most promising up-and-coming talent in The Bovary Tale, until September 12.
