2) Jack Whitehall vs. Mark Grist @ Mooch

Friday, 7.30pm, £5

The worlds most unlikely event, a rap battle between plum-voiced fop Jack Whitehall and spoken word legend Mark Grist, at the Theatre of Dreams (Mooch). It’s for charity and the cast of C4’s Fresh Meat will be behind the bar. You honestly couldn’t make it up.

3) Jekyll and Hyde @ Nottingham Arts Theatre

Wednesday- Saturday, 7.30pm (with Saturday matinee), £10-7

Musicality are moving away from the happy clappy associations of musical theatre and will be performing a darker show this week. As revealed in The Tab’s interview, the audience should expect blood, evil alter egos and some scenes of a sexual nature. Following the amazing Wild West End, The Tab are sure that this will be a sell out.

Wednesday- Saturday, 7.30pm (with Friday matinee), £5
