Do not miss...


Cabaret Mechanical Theatre
Kinetica Museum
6 April to 5 May

The Cabaret Mechanical Theatre is celebrating its 28th year with a show featuring more that 80 pieces of hand-made automata - automatic mechanisms with concealed motive power. The exhibition will tell the story of the company, taking in its dark humour and insights. The ride of life takes place at the Kinetica Musuem, old Spitalfields Market in London. Visit www.cabaret.co.uk for more information.



Satyagraha
English National Opera
5 April to 1 May

ENO presents the London stage premiere of Philip Glass's Satyagraha, the second in the composer¹s landmark trilogy of 'portrait' operas about men who changed the world. This poignant new production based on Mahatma Gandhi's early years in South Africa, explores how the spiritual and political leader developed non-violent protest into a powerful force for change, as India
marks her 60th year of independence.7 performances remaining. Visit www.eno.org.



last time to experience…
Carsten Höller @ the Tate Modern
End this weekend 15 April

To date, Höller has installed six smaller slides in other galleries and museums, but the cavernous space of the Turbine Hall offers a unique setting in which to extend his vision. Yet, as the title implies, he sees it as a prototype for an even larger enterprise, in which slides could be introduced
across London, or indeed, in any city. How might a daily dose of sliding affect the way we perceive the world? Can slides become part of our experiential and architectural life? This free event is ticketed, so make sure you arrive on the day at 10am to ensure that you get a ticket. For more ticketing information, visit www.tate.org.uk.
