On this World Theatre Day, certain powers seem to have misinterpreted it as theatre of war. Meanwhile, as we spring forward:
This weekend, Bryony Kimmings's Bog Witch and Renad's A Grain of Sand are both at HOME (until 28 Mar) and Emergence 26 is at New Adelphi on Fri 27 + Sat 28 Mar.

Leeds Playhouse has Imitating the Dog's War of the Worlds (until 28 Mar) and Ontroerend Goed's Handle With Care on Fri 27 + Sat 28 Mar; while Yorkshire Dance has Roadhouse 22 on Fri 27 Mar. At the Unity in Liverpool, Up Next Festival runs until 28 Mar, including Spinster on Fri 27 Mar and Mr Chubba Chubba on Sat 28 Mar.
