SUMMARY:The Long Play Sessions: Paul Sexton with Rock Goes to College (Special performance from Freya Everest)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special evening with Paul Sexton\, acclaimed music journalist\, author and broadcaster\, as he explores his latest book Rock Goes to College — the definitive\, untold story of the UK university gig circuit that launched a generation of legendary artists. With an opening performance by talented singer-songwriter Freya Everest\, this one is not to be missed!  \nIn Rock Goes to College\, Sexton traces the rise of Britain’s student gig circuit during the late 1960s and 1970s. This grassroots touring network became a proving ground for emerging artists during the explosion of rock music and the album era. As new universities and polytechnics opened across the UK\, bands criss-crossed the country in battered vans\, playing student unions\, honing their sound and chasing the dream of a record deal. \nDrawing on extensive original interviews and his unrivalled access to artists and industry figures\, Sexton tells remarkable early-career stories of acts including Pink Floyd\, Led Zeppelin\, The Who\, Queen\, Elton John\, Fleetwood Mac\, Genesis\, Nick Drake\, AC/DC and Dire Straits — as well as the student promoters and social secretaries who booked them\, many of whom would go on to shape the modern music industry themselves. The book also reveals how Paul McCartney and Wings returned to this circuit post-Beatles to road-test a new band from the ground up. \nPart music history\, part social history\, Rock Goes to College captures a vital moment when higher education\, youth culture and live music collided — shaping careers\, communities and the future of British rock. \nWhat to expect\n\nAn in-depth conversation with Paul Sexton on the stories and research behind Rock Goes to College\nInsight into the UK’s university gig circuit and its role in developing iconic artists\nDiscussion on music journalism\, biography and documenting cultural history\nAudience Q&A\nA live and intimate acoustic performance from Freya Everest\nBook signing opportunity — bring your copy or purchase one on the night\n\nWe look forward to welcoming you to The Long Play Sessions for an entertaining\, insightful and nostalgia-rich evening uncovering one of the most influential — and least documented — chapters in British music history. \nAbout The Long Play Sessions\nThis event forms part of The Long Play Sessions\, a curated series hosted by ICMP Music School\, celebrating influential writers whose work has shaped how we understand music\, culture and creative history. Each session brings landmark books to life through live conversation\, historical context and deep industry insight.

SUMMARY:Nine Sixteenths - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:At the end of a 25-date UK tour\, the fast\, fun multimedia theatre show Nine Sixteenths\, inspired by the media rise\, fall and rise again of Janet Jackson\, is set for a run at Brixton House\, 19-30 May  \n  \nAt the 2004 Super Bowl\, Justin Timberlake exposed Janet Jackson’s breast and nipple to a huge live TV audience for nine sixteenths of a second. This brief moment derailed Jackson’s career for many years\, while Timberlake’s thrived. \n  \nNine Sixteenths unpacks the rise\, fall\, and rise again of global pop superstar Jackson\, and what this says about how black women are treated by the media. Created by artist/theatre-maker Paula Varjack\, it explores coming of age in the 1990s and the hugely influential role Jackson played\, especially for young black women. It’s fast\, fun and hugely entertaining – the venue and audience are transported to a world of stadium concerts and TV studios. It takes the audience on a journey\, exploring themes of representation and pop culture with a nostalgia for the early 00’s\, and the hopes and dreams of four black female performers through a visual variety of devised theatre\, dance\, and lip-sync. \n  \nIt amply demonstrates how Jackson helped shape our contemporary cultural landscape\, paving the way for artists such as Britney Spears\, Beyoncé\, and Rihanna\, and shows how a struggling video-sharing site called YouTube began attracting clicks when it became the place to rewatch the incident! \n  \nThe tour took in cities including Manchester\, Leeds\, Bristol\, Coventry\, Wolverhampton\, Leicester\, Brighton\, Nottingham\, Oxford and many more. \n  \nPaula said ‘Janet Jackson was a tremendous icon to me at a time when I had relatively few black female artists to look to. She was a game changer in so many ways – and did it on her terms. After her ‘wardrobe malfunction’\, the music industry let her down in ways so effective that many thought her career faded away. Yet she kept working\, making music and films. Now\, finally\, the injustice of what happened is being recognised. In the end\, it’s the art that matters. As an iconic role model for many black women and an outspoken ally for the LGBTQI+ community\, she made great art. The show also looks at why role models matter and the lack of older female role models of colour\, and the role that (largely) white male media executives play in deciding who thrives in mainstream pop culture. \n  \nWho was invested in the backlash and became obsessed with blocking Jackson’s success? Who joked over her humiliation? How have all those involved profited since? \n  \nAll dates feature British Sign Language by Jacqui Beckford and Vinessa Brant as an integral part of the production.

SUMMARY:Don Quixote: Where Passion\, Fire and Every Body Takes the Stage - London Theatre
DESCRIPTION:London Ballet Theatre brings Don Quixote to London this May\, and if you have ever thought that ballet is not for you\, this is the production that will change your mind entirely. \nLondon Ballet Theatre is not like other ballet companies. Built on the belief that dance belongs to everybody\, LBT opens its stage to dancers of all backgrounds\, ages\, abilities\, and body types. There is no body shaming here\, no impossible physical ideal to conform to\, no single vision of what a dancer must look like. LBT Pro brings together accomplished professional artists performing at the very highest level\, while LBT Community welcomes dancers of every experience and ability into the same creative family. Both share the same stage\, the same passion\, and the same conviction that everyone has a role. This is what #ForDancersByDancers truly means\, and you will feel it the moment the curtain rises. \nOn stage\, Don Quixote is pure joy. Set to Minkus’s irresistible\, endlessly energetic score\, it is one of the most vibrant and exhilarating ballets in the classical repertoire: a story of romance\, adventure\, comedy\, and the magnificent stubbornness of the human spirit. LBT’s production is performed with breathtaking passion and technical brilliance\, and it has been crafted to be as thrilling for a first-time audience as it is for a lifelong ballet devotee. \nWhat makes this production truly distinctive is the way it brings the story to life. Video narrations introduce each scene before the dancing begins\, gently and engagingly guiding every audience member into Cervantes’s world so that no one ever feels lost or excluded. Cinematic projections form a vivid\, atmospheric backdrop throughout\, transporting the audience to the sun-drenched plazas and golden landscapes of Spain. The result is a seamless and spellbinding fusion of live ballet\, film and visual artistry that feels unlike anything else currently on the London stage. \nThis season is presented in proud cooperation with the Lord Mayor of Westminster and the British Film Festival. London Ballet Theatre is a sell-out company\, and audiences are warmly encouraged to secure their tickets early. \nWhether you are bringing someone to their very first ballet\, looking for a spectacular and unusual evening out\, or searching for a performance that genuinely reflects the diversity and spirit of this city\, Don Quixote at London Ballet Theatre is your answer. \nLooking to hire Dancers for your Next Events. Music for London has a dedicated dancers for hire category.

SUMMARY:Comedy Unleashed
DESCRIPTION:Comedy Unleashed is a night of free-thinking comedy with comedians who don’t self-censor! \nWhy Comedy Unleashed? \nAndrew Doyle: “Andy Shaw and I set up Comedy Unleashed because we feel that the time is right for a new alternative comedy movement. We book comics from all political backgrounds\, or those who have no interest in politics at all. Our key criteria is that they are talented and funny. ” \nFeaturing: \nStephen Grant \nA hugely popular MC at the London club\, Stephen is taking the headline spot tonight. Stephen’s energy and intellect have won him multiple awards. He makes the place buzz and he has an opinion on everything and everyone. \nArielle Souma \nArielle Souma\, a French-Ivorian comedian\, is an unapologetic force in the comedy world. Her commanding stage presence and razor-sharp delivery make her a comedic powerhouse. Known for her hilariously blunt style\, Arielle Souma is not for the faint of heart. \nTania Edwards \nTania is an utterly middle-class sceptic of middle-class sensibilities\, empty-headed fads and groupthink. She is a super popular comic at the London Comedy Unleashed club. \nJosh Howie \nHost of Free Speech Nation on GB News\, Josh is a top comic who weaves lengthy tales out of everyday life that are utterly hilarious. He’s a brilliant storyteller. Here’s clip of Josh from the London club \nDominic Frisby \nDominic is a libertarian version of Billy Bragg (with a sense of humour). Dominic’s recent video ‘We’re All far Right Now\, was retweeted by Elon Musk and got 60 million views. \nDominic will perform new songs and some old favourites \nTicket buyers will be added to the Comedy Unleashed email newsletter.

SUMMARY:Shahak Shapira - Selective Identity - LONDON
DESCRIPTION:Shahak Shapira is an Israeli-German comedian with Arab roots performing stand-up in English. It’s a mess. \nWith origins stretching from Baghdad to Vienna\, Shahak is a walking container for some of the planet’s most problematic identities\, navigating a world that seems very invested in deciding who he is. \n \nSounds like a downer\, but even life’s most depressing stories can make for great comedy if you end them with a punchline. In Selective Identity\, Shahak searches for those punchlines in roots\, heartbreak\, war\, racism\, depression\, never fitting in\, the search for a home\, and many other light-hearted topics – with a success rate of about 80%. \n \nContent note: This show touches on mental health and includes references to suicidal thoughts. \n \nCAN’T AFFORD A TICKET?E-Mail me at tickets@shahak.net and we’ll figure it out. I know what it’s like to be broke and want my shows to be accessible to anyone. \n\n? WHO AM I?Hey\, I’m Shahak Shapira\, an Israeli comedian in Germany\, which is\, already\, just wrong on so many levels. My comedy show on German TV got canceled so fast\, most people didn’t even know I had one. I recorded a stand up special for Comedy Central\, which would have been awesome\, but it was Comedy Central Germany\, so yeah\, not great. My TED-Talk about how to go viral has about 30\,000 views which is as sad as it is ironic. And as if all of that is not tragic enough – I’m also a DJ. \n↩️ REFUND POLICYUsually\, tickets for shows and concerts are non-refundable\, but I’m cool\, so you can get a full refund up to 14 days before the show. Please understand that I can’t offer any refund after that\, it takes a bit of financial security to be able to do these shows.

SUMMARY:Tomi Balogh – A Reason To Listen
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to welcome back London-based pianist\, composer\, and producer\, Tomi Balogh\, to the Liszt Institute London for a special pre-release concert of his newest album\, A Reason To Listen. \nA Reason To Listen is his most personal work to date. Inspired by his son Samuel\, who was diagnosed with a rare genetic syndrome shortly after birth\, the album is a meditation on unconditional love\, on finding joy in unexpected places\, and on learning to let go of expectations. It is a story that extends far beyond one family — a reminder that every person deserves to be loved exactly as they are. \nJoining Tomi for this special evening are featured collaborators from the album: Rick Leon James the multi-instrumentalist\, bass player and producer\, Zsofi Bartal flautist\, Selina Albright\, vocalist and Daniel Deej John on drums. Together\, they bring the album to life in an intimate live setting before its release to the world. \nAlongside the music\, Tomi is partnering with charities that support families raising children with additional needs – and this concert is part of that wider conversation. \nAdmission is free. Registration via Eventbrite is required.

SUMMARY:Pascol - Vocal Performance at The Cockpit
DESCRIPTION:After a major success at Voila! Festival 2025 and several sold-out performances at London theatres\, Pascol comes to the Cockpit stage for one night only.  \nOn 28 April\, Pascol presents an intimate vocal performance that invites you to bring your stories and experience how they are transformed live through voice\, movement\, and collective improvisation. \nBlending live vocal improvisation and audience storytelling\, the performance transforms personal memories into sound — emotional\, unpredictable\, and never the same twice. \nLed by project founder Sasha Gefen — a musician\, composer\, and music therapist — Pascol brings together six vocalists who turn audience stories into improvised soundscapes. Each performance begins with an open invitation: audience members are welcome to share a story or memory. In response\, the ensemble listens\, moves\, and sings together\, composing live using only voice and physical expression — no instruments\, no script. \nThe result is a collective\, deeply human experience — a musical reflection shaped by the emotions and presence in the room. Harmonies and layered vocal textures echo the audience’s inner world\, offering an intimate encounter where individual stories become shared sound. \nCombining improvisation\, storytelling\, and emotional resonance\, Pascol offers an intimate space where individual stories become collective experiences — fleeting\, expressive\, and deeply human.
