Catch a show at the Pleasance Theatre
Are big, shiny West End productions with their hordes of tourists and exorbitant ticket prices not your thing? Enjoy a more low-key night of performance and fringe productions at Islington’s Pleasance Theatre, with some comedy shows thrown in for good measure. The venue is explicitly LGBTQ-friendly and hosts regular drag nights, too. Importantly, there’s a gorgeous bar with a romantic terrace – perfect for getting to know new dates better over a sophisticated interval drink or two. Recommended by local insider Olivia Dicker
