Ssshhh! Circus Cabaret curated by Lucy Loves Circus @ Jacksons Lane
Tickets
Jul 16 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Curated by Lucy Loves Circus

Doffing our cap to the traditions of vaudeville and the origins of circus and cabaret, acclaimed circus blogger Lu Cyrcus curates this very special night, led by Cirque du Soleil’s lead clown Sean Kempton. New and old combine in this evening of contemporary varieté, featuring everything from pole dancing to aerial rope and trapeze, where burlesque meets juggling kettle bells, with a dash of musical saw thrown in for good measure.

A night to tease, whisper and gasp – Ssshhh!

Highgate Coffee & Computers Special Cyber Scam session @ The Highgate Society
Tickets
Oct 4 @ 10:30 am – 12:30 pm

TheHighgate Coffee & Computers’ special Cyber scam session is today!

Numbers are limited so please email to say if you’ll be joining us on Friday 04 October and if you’re bringing a friend. 

By popular request, we hand over the morning to Leslie Jackson and Tom Lee from the Metropolitan Scam Safe Unit. Scams of all kinds happen every day in Camden, from PIN theft at ATMs to clever phone fraud. In this age of electronics, it can happen to any of us, at any time. 
 
In July alone Camden Borough residents made 148 reports to Action Fraud. Their losses total £537,330 or an average loss of £3,606 per report. 
 
The top three types of fraud are: 
False representation 43 reports £2,040 lost 
Online Shopping & Auctions 18 reports £3,656 lost 
Consumer Fraud 15 reports £31,199 lost 
 
The top three by amount reported lost: 
Payment Fraud £314,933 lost 9 reports 
Click Fraud £65,000 lost 1 report 
Banking Fraud £50,307 lost 9 reports   
 
But if we know what to look out for, we can easily stay clear of the scammers.
Using videos and recounting personal experience, Les and Tom will demonstrate some simple but effective measures we can all take to best prevent fraud happening to us. 
See you later!

Witch Hunt @ Jacksons Lane
Tickets
Oct 14 @ 7:30 pm – 8:30 pm

Following their sell-out, award-winning show Enter The Dragons, A&E Comedy (Abigail Dooley and Emma Edwards, “a brilliant comedy coupling” Total Theatre) return with a spell-binding, surreal and darkly hilarious tale, directed by Cal McCrystal.

“I think they are amazing!!” Phoebe Waller-Bridge

Witch Hunt weaves a cautionary fairytale for our time. It celebrates the wisdom of the witch, unpacks the notion of predator and conjures a world of coven-ready weird sisters.

“Watch out, there are wild women about.  Knicker-Wettingly funny” Total Theatre

A ritualistic voodoo brouhaha designed to enchant and hex the pricks and predators; imagine Vic and Bob doing The Crucible.

Using buffoon, puppetry and magic and armed with a ‘wiccan’ sense of humour, A&E Comedy ask “can we use witchcraft to take down the Patriarchy?” Yes we can!
