Freetime at The Ivy House

Hatty writes:

We are putting on a Dino Collective night at the Ivy House on Friday 22nd November called Freetime. We will be playing real authentic vinyl which is even older than we are, alongside digital files on spangly modern devices.

Joining us in our musical endeavours are Lisa Louder and DJ Kamakiri, which means that none of us will know quite what to expect musically. But it should be fun. Full details on the attached flyer. We'll basically be there from 8 till late playing good music and you don't have to pay to get in. There is even sound proofing, which is music to our ears!

The half-term children's theatre pub crawl

Waggly Tales Theatre Company is performing our original show, The Magic Tea Kettle, at family-friendly pubs in southeast London this autumn half term (Thursday 31 October – Saturday 2 November) and as part of the Lewisham Fringe Festival on Sunday 3rd November. The show, which had a sell-out run in June this year, is for kids aged two to seven - and babies come free.

The Magic Tea Kettle, inspired by a Japanese folktale, is packed with music, mayhem, magic and oodles of laughs. When cheeky Prince Arnold is turned gloomy and dull by a Moody Fairy, his best friend Sophie the Witch has to break the spell. Luckily for hr, help is at hand from a rather smelly but very magical Badger Tea Kettle. Waggly Tales also offers post-show workshops with the cast and director.

The Magic Tea Kettle show dates:
Thursday 31 October: The Ivy House, Nunhead, 11.30am and 2pm
Friday 1 November: The Herne Tavern, East Dulwich, 11.30am and 2pm
Saturday 2 November: The Old Nun’s Head, Nunhead, 11.30am and 2pm
Sunday 3 November: The London Theatre, New Cross, 11am

Tickets: £5-10 Book online via www.wagglytales.co.uk

The Nunhead Corner Pop-Up Gallery

Our Nunhead forum does such a good job of documenting Nunhead events, that it's been a while since we've run a story about the area. However, this gallery opening seems like a good excuse - the first private view is this Friday, then the second stage opens on the 18th September. Visit their Facebook page for more details.
