Waiting for Hitchcock @ Jacksons Lane

Finnish magician Robert Jagerhorn has been nurturing his quirky magic act in Helsinki for years and, desperate to bring his genius to UK shores, we’re dragging him to London to be part of Postcards.

In this show he presents Hitchcock’s very first silent film Number 8 using only his unique brand of magic and comedy. Prepare for the absurd, the hilarious and the memorable, in an entertaining night of tricks and feats.

Uptown! @ Boogaloo
Jun 28 @ 8:00 pm – Jun 29 @ 1:00 am

noun. the northern section of an urban area
adj. high-class, of quality, distinction and note

UpTown brings a blend of high quality music for dancing to North London’s favourite juke box bar. With an eye to the dancefloor and an ear to some of the finest music produced over the last several decades, Djs Trailer Trish and Johnny Klash set the perfect tone for a Friday night out.

UpTown brings you back to when kids in the North of England spun the night away to the sounds of Detroit and Philly; when Motown ruled the charts; when rock and roll meant ‘rock and roll’; when the sounds of the American South met the big city clubs and everyone was ‘doin the popcorn’; when Studio 54 bumped to brave new beats; when Debby Harry met Fab 5 Freddy; when UK indie ruled the world; and when pop music was good music.

Clay Oven Pizza Company will have a pop up pizza trailer on site tonight from 6pm.

Handel: Judas Maccabaeus @ All Hallows Church
Jul 6 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm

Highgate Choral Society

“See, the conqu’ring hero comes!”
Handel began composing Judas Maccabaeus in 1745 but abandoned it in favour of his Occasional Oratorio, which was performed in early 1746 as a piece of propaganda encouraging English loyalists against the Jacobite invasion lead by Bonnie Prince Charlie. Only later was Handel sure that a victory oratorio would be necessary and returned to the score of Judas Maccabaeus, completing it by 11 August. His librettist, Thomas Morell, used as his main source the First Book of Maccabees, which deals with the Jewish revolt against the Seleucid Empire in the 2nd century BC.

This rarely performed oratorio draws deliberate parallels with the defeat of the Jacobite forces in the violent battle of Culloden and according to Morell was “design’d as a compliment to the Duke of Cumberland upon his returning victorious from Scotland”. High drama, with one of Handel’s most famous choruses, See, the conqu’ring hero, the rousing call to arms, Sound an alarm! and the ravishing aria, Father of Heav’n.
