In her new fortnightly column and blog, our fringe theatre maven Maxie Szalwinska picks the best things to see beyond the beaten track of London's West End.
Thanks for all your recommendations for plays to see beyond the beaten track of London's West End. A couple of these really piqued my interest and I'll be checking them out later this week (how could I resist Zones II-VI, a show that bills itself as Sherlock Holmes meets Don Quixote?). Please keep the suggestions coming. Here's this fortnight's preview of the Fringe productions I'm particularly looking forward to:
Sunday in the Park with George Sondheim and Lapine's musical gets on outing at the delicious Menier Chocolate Factory. On until February 19.
Deep End A promenade production in Soho's disused Marshall Street Baths, haunted by the ghosts of swimmers past On from December 12-18. Call Soho Theatre to book.
The Ratcatcher of Hamelin A dark Christmas show about drastic pest control courtesy of the energetic company Cartoon de Salvo . At the Battersea Arts Centre until January 14.
Coelacanth More appealingly dippy storytelling theatre from writer/performer Ben Moor. At the Etcetera Theatre until December 11.
Pass on some fringe benefits yourself: post your recommendations and suggestions below for productions you think we should cover over the next two weeks, and Maxie will let you know how she gets on.
