Did you know?
"Haydock Green resident and London eccentric, Stanley Green spent 25 years carrying a placard along Oxford Street proclaiming "Less Lust, By Less Protein" until his passing in 1993. His placard can currently be seen in the Museum of London."
Although it is located on the outskirts of the capital, I love Ruislip because it offers both peace and quiet and underground links into central London.

Lunatraktors
I am a big fan of the Lunatraktors. They offer an experience which I am sure will linger on long after the evening as ended. They are a collaboration between choreographer and percussionist Carli Jefferson and vocalist and researcher Clair Le Couteur. Starting in 2017 with an apocalyptic question What's left when we've lost everything the project strips down folk to the basics of rhythm and voice. Jefferson's hybrid of tap dance, flamenco and body percussion, developed after touring with STOMP (2001-2004), meets Le Couteur's self-taught overtone singing and 3+ octave range. This is the foundation of what they call their style of 'broken folk'. The hard-hitting social commentary is enhanced through the use of harmonic singing, dance, accordion, and whistles. Not to be missed.Read more

Rock Of Ages - Ruislip Adult
Rock of Ages is a jukebox musical built around classic rock songs from the 1980s, especially from the famous glam metal bands of that decade. The musical features songs from Journey, Bon Jovi, Twisted Sister, Steve Perry, Poison and Europe, among other well-known rock bands. The original Broadway production ran for 2,328 performances, making it the 29th-longest-running show in Broadway history. Since then, it has spawned replica productions worldwide in Japan, Australia, and the west end among others, as well as several touring productions. The 2012 film starred Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, Russell Brand and Catherine Zeta Jones. With a very witty script (and some adult jokes) and with such a good collection of song, everyone is guaranteed a great night out.
