The Cage
  • Who’s the first performer that comes to mind when you think “Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday bash”? Amy Winehouse? Right, us neither.
  • London housing prices fell by 0.5% in April. Brilliant! At that rate, Londonist should be able to afford a home here around 2028.

  • The Chapman brothers’ If Hitler Had Been a Hippy How Happy Would We Be exhibit, making use of some of the fuehrer’s paintings, opens today at White Cube.
  • I’d Do Anything producer thinks that one of the finalists to play Nancy in the West End production of Oliver! is “too big” for the part. He is not, unfortunately, referring to her voice.
  • Have a fantastic weekend, fair readers.
