Events coming up in Ealing

Thursday: Dappled Light Open Late

Pitzhanger Manor is open late on the last Thursday of April to give you the opportunity to experience 'Dappled Light' in a relaxed setting. 

The solo exhibition of work by artist Rana Begum RA displays striking works exploring the perception of light, colour and form and blur the boundaries between sculpture, architecture, design and painting.

Experience the exhibition between 5-8:30pm with a pay bar and music from DJ Chance.

Friday: Toxic Avenger

Based on Lloyd Kaufman's cult film, The Toxic Avenger is a charming love story and laugh-out-loud musical that has it all: an unlikely hero, his beautiful girlfriend, a corrupt New Jersey mayor and two guys who play... well, everyone else ... bullies, mobsters, old ladies and stiletto-wearing back-up singers.

Foiled by the mayor's bullies, Melvin is dumped into a vat of radioactive toxic waste, only to reemerge as The Toxic Avenger, New Jersey's first superhero. 

Affectionately known as Toxie, our new hero is a seven-foot mutant freak with superhuman strength and a heart as big as Newark. He's out to save New Jersey, end global warming, and woo the blind librarian in town.

Sunday: India Gate

India Gate is the gripping new play inspired by India's fight for freedom.

The play follows the journey of Edwin and Emily Lutyens and their connection with the Indian community in London and Delhi during the construction of the All India War Memorial, India Gate. Interwoven with their story is that of the Sikh Martyr Udham Singh, whose fight for India's independence from the British Raj began in 1919.

Details on how to win tickets to India Gate are available here.
