Richard III @ Nottingham Playhouse

Burger Wednesdays @ Homemade Cafe
Open daily from 9 am, 20 Pelham Street
Head down to Homemade for a hump day treat, you get a free milkshake with every burger. The Tab can confirm that they are delish, don’t miss out. And maybe have a brownie after too.

This is a spectacle not to be missed- a mixture of comedy and poignancy. Just watch the trailer.
