Ting at the Shangri-La
On the 35th floor of the Shard, Ting delivers the astonishing views that you would expect. What I didn't expect was the incredible food that was pretty good value for money - £55 for four mouth-watering courses and the prettiest dessert I've ever seen!Read more

"Frustrated at the council refusing him permission to build a house on some land that he owned on Mandela Way, property developer Russell Gray applied for permission to place a tank on the land. The council assumed it would be a water tank and granted permission. Russell instead parked a Russian T34 on there!"
The regeneration of the Lambeth area is continuing at a pace...keep your eye on this part of London.

For me the Southbank is one of the finest places to take a stroll in the whole of the city.

Midnight Cowboy A New Musical
Two broken souls stumble the streets, misfits, clutching to a fragile hope of finding fortune around the corner. The dark corners and harsh flickering neon of New York City await, as Midnight Cowboy A New Musical makes its world premiere at Southwark Playhouse Elephant in London. Starring Paul Jacob French (_An Officer and A Gentleman_ & _Grease_ [London and UK Tour]) as Joe Buck is a young man desperate to escape his dead-end past. Leaving everything behind, Joe turns to sex work in pursuit of wealth and belonging in the unforgiving city, where he meets a man just as lost as he is - Rico ‘Ratso’ Rizzo, played by Max Bowden (_Eastenders_ & _Birdsong_ [UK Tour]). The pair join forces, prepared to do whatever it takes to achieve their dreams, even if it means surrendering a part of themselves. But New York ain’t no dream - it’s a jungle and survival requires sacrifice… The new musical is based on the novel by James Leo Herlihy which inspired the beloved triple Academy Award-winning 1969 film, starring Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman. Midnight Cowboy captures the gripping tension of dreaming big whilst trying to survive the grind of New York City.This powerful adaptation has a book by Bryony Lavery (writer of the Tony-nominated play _Frozen_), which breathes new life into the classic story, exploring the depths of friendship and ambition, and soundtrack by three-time Ivor Novello Award-winning composer Francis “Eg” White, who has written songs for Adele, Florence + The Machine and James Morrison. Presented by ADAMA Entertainment, Midnight Cowboy is playing at Southwark Playhouse Elephant until 17 May 2025. BSL INTERPRETED PERFORMANCE: Tuesday, 22nd April, 7:00pm CAPTIONED PERFORMANCE: Wednesday, 30th April, 7:00pmRead more
