Have you been out of the dating scene for a while and want to go on a date before the week is over? Do first dates make you nervous? Does speed dating feel more like 20 back-to-back interviews than a fun night out? \nThe London Dating Marathon is designed to help you rebuild your confidence\, take the pressure off first dates\, start enjoying meeting new people again and bring new connections into your life. \nWhat Not to Expect\nThis is not speed dating\, a singles party or another reason to spend hours scrolling through profiles. There are no forced introductions\, awkward group activities or pressure to impress a room full of strangers. \nWhat to Expect\nThe Dating Marathon is a one-week guided experience combining daily learning and self-reflection with clear actions to take. Your journey begins from the comfort of your screen\, but its purpose is to move you into real life: creating a plan and going on one or perhaps several dates with other marathon participants before the week is over. \nYou will also be among the first people invited into the closed beta of MeetTonight\, with exclusive Premium access throughout the marathon. The platform will be our central tool for creating date plans\, discovering other participants and arranging real-life meetings within a private\, structured environment designed to support safety and accountability. \nYou do not need to feel completely ready. You only need to be ready for something to change. \nJoin the London Dating Marathon and take your dating life from the screen into the real world. \nPLAN. MEET. LIVE.

SUMMARY:THE CLEANERS FROM VENUS + THE GARDENERS
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nTHE CLEANERS FROM VENUS\nTHE GARDENERS\nMonday 5 October\nIslington Assembly Hall\, Upper St\, London\, N1 2UD\n7pm | £18 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/eb85ea9a3f61 \nTHE CLEANERS FROM VENUS will be performing this Autumn in London. Martin Newell will be on guitar and piano\, joined by Nelson Surfquake Nice –  an original member of Cleaners back in the 80s\, and half of The Brotherhood of Lizards alongside Martin. The group will be performing some classic Cleaners songs\, with a Brotherhood of Lizards cameo-set thrown in! \nMartin Newell is a purveyor of ingenious pop music. His music is refracted from late 60s rock only shot through with invention from the rough-and-ready explosion of DIY tape releases in 80s Britain. As a songwriter\, he’s right up there with Syd Barrett and Ray Davies\, capturing a peculiar Englishness that’s very much his own. \nMartin started his career in music aged 19 when he joined an Essex glam-rock band called The Mighty Plod as a singer and gigged in rough clubs\, pubs and colleges for the next two years. In his early twenties he joined a hard rock/prog band from Ipswich called Gypp and gigged in the UK as well as touring northern Germany several times. In 1979\, he won his first record contract and shortly afterwards his first single ‘Young Jobless / Sylvie In Toytown’ was released\, first on an indie label and then with Liberty Records. In the 1980s he formed the anarchic and wonderfully offbeat Cleaners From Venus\, who after much defiance of music biz convention\, signed to a London record company and began making proper records which were well reviewed and well-received. He began co-writing songs with Captain Sensible in 1986\, a relationship which endures to some extent to this day. In 1989 he and his friend Nelson\, now of New Model Army formed The Brotherhood of Lizards\, were signed to make an album and proceeded to promote it\, touring the record by bicycle. This led to many TV appearances and some notoriety and amusement in the media. In 1993\, with XTC’s Andy Partridge in the producer’s chair Martin made what was to become his most successful album ‘The Greatest Living Englishman’\, hailed by Rolling Stone magazine as a rock classic. Over the last ten years Martin has continued to release exhilarating albums under his own name and as Cleaners from Venus\, most recently a winsome new Cleaners album called ‘K7’ was released on CD and cassette. \nA highly-entertaining live act\, Martin Newell performs infrequently\, refusing nowadays to tour at all.  He has been the subject of  a highly-praised documentary film Upstairs Planet (2019) which enjoyed premieres both in London and in New York. A second documentary The Jangling Man\, the director James Sharp’s intimate portrait of  Newell’s life and work\,  premiered in London and Los Angeles in October 2022. \nhttps://www.cleanersfromvenus.com/ \nTHE GARDENERS are a jangle-pop inspired indie rock band hailing from London and Southend On Sea. They have recently backed up Martin Newell as part of a live version of Cleaners From Venus. Check out their sublime new single ‘Round the West’ / ‘Falling from You’. \nhttps://linktr.ee/thegardenersband

SUMMARY:1st Night Bus Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Hi all! \nI am constantly getting distracted and never able to finish a book\, which is why I started reading on the bus and surprisingly really began to enjoy the journey. \nSo i’ve started a monthly bus reading gathering that runs the first Tuesday of the month. \nThe idea is we will meet as group at the confirmed bus stop at 8pm (St Mary of Eton Church) board the 26 bus\, read any book we like and then have a catchup / drink at Bar Italia after the bus terminates. \nThis is a great way to start a book you have been meaning to start or continue reading a book you already have started or just want to spend some time meeting others by reading and having a catchup after. \nThe event is held in the evening to avoid crowds and you will also need to be comfortable reading on moving transport! \nApart from that everyone is free to join! \nIf you would be interested in joining our ride and read club you can follow our page for updates @nightbusbookclub. \nI would love to have you!

DESCRIPTION:Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s legendary Sherlock Holmes tale\, first published 125 years ago\, comes to life in a wildly enjoyable\, fun-filled comedy mystery. \nWhen Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead in the grounds of Baskerville Hall\, his family estate on Dartmoor\, with a look of terror carved on his face and the paw prints of a gigantic hound beside him\, the great detective Sherlock Holmes is summoned from Baker Street. With loyal Dr Watson in tow\, the legendary sleuths must unravel the mystery and crack the ancient curse of The Hound of the Baskervilles. \nThe play is brought vividly and brilliantly to life by Inner Voice Theatre Company\, a young Bristol-born theatre company making its London debut less than a year after launching. Three super-talented West Country actors – Ezra Clarke\, Robert Carden and Gabe Willem – play fourteen roles between them in this ultra-high-energy comedy. Produced and directed by award-winning director Steven Clarke\, this production is suitable for ages 8+ \n‘A brilliant\, funny show\, with a great cast\, playful direction and hundreds of jokes.’ — Gareth Edwards\, veteran BBC/Channel 4 comedy producer. The script\, by Olivier Award nominees Steven Canny and John Nicholson\, is packed with verbal and visual wit\, delivering a sublimely engaging and hilarious adaptation of this rip-roaring British classic. ‘Bursts with imagination\, intelligence and irreverence’ — The Guardian. Tickets are available via the King’s Head Theatre website.

SUMMARY:Nina | Battersea Arts Centre
DESCRIPTION:“I’m a seagull. No\, that’s not right. I’m an actress.”\nA series of actresses audition to play Nina in The Seagull for a charismatic\, yet sinister director. His methods are unorthodox\, annihilating\, and very effective. \nIn a debut play from celebrated director Caroline Williams\, co-directed by award-\nwinning artist Deborah Pearson\, NINA questions why so many women are drawn to\nplay an actress who has everything taken away from her by men. And why do the men\nin Chekhov’s original play keep trying to turn the girls they fancy into dead seagulls? \nIn a post #MeToo era\, NINA is a meta theatrical fever dream on coercion\, power and the quest for creative expression. \n“One of the most insightful encounters I have had in a theatre.” Theatre Voices \n“If the opportunity presents itself to see Pearson’s work you must go immediately.” The Huffington Post

SUMMARY:The Abbey Art Centre as Postwar Refuge\, 1946–56
DESCRIPTION:Ben Uri is delighted to announce the upcoming exhibition\, The Abbey Art Centre as Postwar Refuge\, 1946–56\, marking the simultaneous publication of The Abbey Art Centre in postwar London 1946–1956\, eds.\, Jane Eckette\, Ian McLean and Sheridan Palmer (Routledge)\, this autumn. \nThe exhibition unfolds the remarkable story of the Abbey Art Centre\, a cosmopolitan art colony established at New Barnet in 1946 by charismatic artist\, gallerist and world art collector\, William Ohly (1883–1955). A crucible of creativity on London’s northern edge\, the Abbey was a postwar haven for stateless Jewish refugees\, as well as artists from Australia\, Britain and continental Europe. Ohly’s openness to outsiders extended to his dealings at the Berkeley Galleries in Mayfair\, which opened in late 1941 during the Blitz and where Abbey artists occasionally exhibited\, as well as Commonwealth artists and artists from Ohly’s own world art collection. The Abbey was an important seeding bed for cross-cultural and transnational modernism that proved pivotal to the careers of many artists\, as they navigated the seismic political and cultural shifts taking place in the postwar and postcolonial artistic landscape in Britain and beyond. \nFeaturing paintings\, sculpture\, drawings\, monotypes\, lithographs\, puppets and related photographs\, books and archival materials\, the exhibition includes artworks by Abbey residents Scottish painter Alan Davie\, English sculptor Peter King\, English painter Lilian Colbourn\, German émigré painters and printmakers Marcel Frishman\, Margret Kroch-Frishman and William Ohly\, Austrians Helen Grünwald and Angela Varga\, sculptors Inge King and Gudrun Krüger\, pioneering German animator Lotte Reiniger\, Ukrainian painter Stacha Halpern\, Australian constructivist Robert Klippel and painters James Cant and Mary Webb. Narrative sub-themes include the impact of African and Indigenous Australian art on emerging artists and socially conscious painter-printmakers working in London’s East End. The exhibition also features a small number of artists associated with the Berkeley Galleries including Nigerian modernist Ben Enwonwu\, German sculptor Fred Kormis and Prussian-born graphic artist Katerina Wilczynski\, as well as related photographs\, books and archival materials. \nA book launch and a related series of events will accompany the exhibition.

SUMMARY:Deep into the Sixties – David Kynaston in conversation with Samira Ahmed (In person)
DESCRIPTION:It’s the heart of the Sixties in Britain – the Beatles and the Stones vie at the top of the charts\, England win the World Cup\, and optimism and patriotism percolate through the streets. But this is not the full story of mid-Sixties Britain. Disaffection on the political left increasingly focuses on the escalating Vietnam War; and the ambitious hopes of Harold Wilson’s Labour government start to founder on the precarious state of the pound. It is a time of looking both backwards and forwards – sweeping reforms to secondary education\, huge swathes of urban redevelopment and the irresistible rise of a confident\, free-spending youth culture. Yet everyday life for many\, especially beyond the big cities\, bears a striking resemblance to decades earlier. \nLegendary historian\, David Kynaston\, discusses the latest instalment in his landmark Tales of a New Jerusalem series\, Deep Into the Sixties: Britain 1965–66\, which paints a richly nuanced picture of unrivalled detail\, revolutionising how we see post-war Britain and the so-called Swinging Sixties. He’ll be in conversation with journalist and broadcaster Samira Ahmed\, whose new BFI Film Classics book on the Beatles film A Hard Day’s Night similarly explores the shifting cultural landscape of 1960s Britain. \nDavid Kynaston has been a professional historian since 1973 and is the author of nineteen critically acclaimed books. His continuing history of postwar Britain\, Tales of a New Jerusalem\, has so far comprised Austerity Britain\, Family Britain\, Modernity Britain\, On the Cusp and A Northern Wind. He has also written several books on aspects of cricket history including the award-winning Arlott\, Swanton and the Soul of English Cricket (with Stephen Fay) and Richie Benaud’s Blue Suede Shoes (with Harry Ricketts). \nSamira Ahmed is a journalist\, writer and BBC broadcaster. She presents Front Row on BBC Radio 4\, Newswatch on BBC One\, and has made acclaimed documentaries including Art of Persia (BBC Four)\, Disgusted\, Mary Whitehouse\, and I Dressed Ziggy Stardust (BBC Radio 4). In 2020\, she was named Audio Presenter of the Year by the Broadcasting Press Guild. Her writing has appeared in The Guardian\, The Observer\, and New Humanist\, where she also writes a regular column. A Hard Day’s Night is her first book. \nOur events programme is presented in partnership with Hakluyt & Company\, the global strategic advisory firm for businesses and investors. \nBooks by both speakers will be available to buy at the event and online from our partner bookshop Hatchards. \nThis event will take place in person at The London Library. Doors (and the bar) will open at 6.30pm for a 7pm start. Please see our Event Access Guidelines before you arrive. \nLondon Library events are subject to Terms & Conditions

SUMMARY:Time Clocks Book Launch with Yoav Avni
DESCRIPTION:A book launch and conversation with Israeli author Yoav Avni\, celebrating the English-language publication of Time Clocks by Roundfire Books. \nAvni will discuss the novel\, its journey from Hebrew into English\, and the ideas behind its blend of time travel\, artificial intelligence\, humor and questions about how we experience the present. \nThe evening will include conversation\, a reading from the book\, audience Q&A and signing. \nWhen Boaz is summoned to a furious dismissal meeting at the company where he has spent years developing FocalAI\, better known as the nation’s AI\, everything in his familiar\, comfortable office feels like a personal possession — even the door\, the window\, the air\, the time that had passed. \nBy nightfall\, he is cast out into the desolate industrial zone outside his office\, stripped of his phone\, his car\, and perhaps soon his relationship. The future looms\, threatening and uncertain. \nThen\, three strangers appear\, raising questions not about the future but about the past: a police officer who lost her memory in the ’80s (and maybe it is just as well); a flamboyant French dandy from the nineteenth century; and a wounded shepherd from biblical times\, clad in armor and tassels. \nAs his own life unravels\, Boaz feels compelled to discover why these three have arrived at his side. Why…

SUMMARY:Write & Shine: City of Subterfuge - Elizabeth Bowen and Muriel Spark (Online)
DESCRIPTION:Join Write & Shine bright and early\, live from The London Library for a 90-minute virtual writing workshop exploring London as a city of espionage\, secrecy and hidden lives. \nIn this workshop\, we’ll read fiction by London Library members Muriel Spark (1918–2006)\, whose novel The Hothouse by the East River channels her work in wartime intelligence and explores how the past continues to haunt the present\, and Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)\, whose masterpiece The Heat of the Day\, set in 1942\, places London at the heart of intrigue\, betrayal and shifting allegiances. We’ll think about the ways London lends itself to stories of secrecy: a city of subterfuge\, coded messages\, overheard conversations and shadowy encounters. \nThis workshop is part of a series of morning writing sessions led by author Gemma Seltzer\, inspired by The London Library’s rich literary heritage. Together we’ll uncover London as a secret city—a landscape of dreams\, disguises and shadows. \nWrite & Shine workshops take place in the early morning light – the best time to think\, dream and imagine! You won’t be expected to share your writing\, which offers great freedom and encourages all kinds of fascinating ideas to emerge. \nOur events programme is presented in partnership with Hakluyt & Company\, the global strategic advisory firm for businesses and investors. \nNB This is an online workshop via Zoom.

SUMMARY:THE YUMMY FUR - album launch! + BRUNO BOF | Upset the Rhythm
DESCRIPTION:Upset The Rhythm presents… \nTHE YUMMY FUR – album launch!\nBRUNO BOF\nFriday 9 October\nThe Lexington\, 96-98 Pentonville Rd\, Angel\, London\, N1 9JB\n7.30pm | £12 | Tickets: https://link.dice.fm/Eb344d50313e \nTHE YUMMY FUR’s first album of new material in over 25 years is seductive and ambiguous; a fast-paced flip through scenes from art\, myth\, life and fantasy; a witty whole made from glittering scraps. The band’s original incarnation – fronted by singer\, songwriter and guitarist John McKeown from 1992 to 1999 – morphed from making quick-hit cartoon-art songs to Eno and Cale-influenced creepers\, populated by characters from McKeown’s life in Glasgow and the films\, books and poetry that he lived a parallel life through. Everybody Talks About The Weather (out on Sep 24th through Upset The Rhythm) delights in using every past iteration of the band as potent collage material: a melee of sounds and ideas existing at once\, revealing themselves then dipping back into hiding. \nRecorded by the original core trio of McKeown\, Brian MacDougall (guitar) and Paul Thomson (drums)\, Everybody Talks About The Weather comes 17 years after the band reformed for sporadic live shows\, and seven years after the release of their sorta-greatest hits compilation Piggy Wings (Rock Action). Ten tracks long with nothing to spare\, it is as condensed and vital as their best songs\, with a new clarity of sound that allows their ambiguities to come into the light.\nhttps://theyummyfur.bandcamp.com/album/piggy-wings \nBRUNO BOF accompanied by live band playing songs heretofore unheard! The once pre-teen punk prodigy has finally grown up\, in so much as he and his Outrageous Methods Of Presentation release their debut single proper – the double AA sided single featuring two songs of completely different styles that work well together\, each clocking in at around 1 minute 30 seconds. Bruno says of them: “Tire Iron is an anarchistic salutation from a parallel universe where the king of rock ’n’ roll’s name is misspelled Hasil Adkins. This is all of the truth in the universe; the sound of angels kissing”. “You Know I Love You’ is a paean to the eternal salvation of love\, albeit one that comes off like a disturbing Chinn and Chapman song”. In the current climate it’s often only kids from affluent backgrounds that can afford to be creative. Bedminster’s Bruno Bof breaks that mould and his voice is authentic and passionate. \nhttps://linktr.ee/brunobof \n

Blending sharp wit with remarkable honesty\, he explores youth culture\, creativity\, addiction\, failure\, success and redemption\, setting the record straight—or\, as he puts it\, “straight-ish.”\n\n\n\nCelebrated by contemporaries including Oasis\, Primal Scream\, The Chemical Brothers\, The Verve and Radiohead\, the Beta Band became one of Britain’s most influential cult bands\, renowned for their fearless experimentation and unforgettable live performances. Following their acclaimed reunion and sold-out return to the stage\, Steve now looks back on the extraordinary story behind the music in what promises to be an unforgettable evening.\n\n\n\nThe event includes an in-depth conversation with Steve and acclaimed author and journalist Travis Elborough\, an audience Q&A\, and a book signing\, with copies of Failure Is Always an Option available to purchase on the night. \n\nWhether you’re a lifelong Beta Band fan or simply love great stories from the world of music\, this is a rare opportunity to hear from one of Britain’s most original and enigmatic artists.
