Rooftop fun and farcical theatre for lessSave on the West End's longest running comedy
Save money on The Play That Goes WrongIt may be the West End's most (intentionally) disastrous show, but there's something rather right about bagging £15 off tickets to The Play That Goes Wrong this summer. Head to the Duchess Theatre to see the mayhem unfolding on stage. It's the hilarious story of amateur theatrical group the Cornley Drama Society staging a murder mystery play... or trying to, at least. There's been a mysterious death at a country manor with an inspector sent to find the culprit. Cue behind-the-scenes chaos and mishaps from collapsing sets to missing props to actors forgetting their lines — basically, everything that can go wrong, does. The actors and crew battle to make it through to the final curtain call in this escapist comedy show. Do you ever find out who murdered Charles Haversham? Find out for yourself. Not seen The Play That Goes Wrong yet? You're missing out! Already been? Then you know it's good enough to go again... and again. Just be warned, you'll end up aching from laughing so much. And that saving we mentioned? Londonist readers can get up to £15 off on performances taking place at 7.30pm on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and at 3pm and 7pm on Sunday. Offer valid on tickets usually priced at £87.50 (reduced to £72.50), £82.50 (reduced to £67.50), £72.50 (reduced to £60), £67.50 (reduced to £55), £60 (reduced to £50), and £55 (reduced to £45). The offer is valid for performances up to 30 September, but you'll need to book before 31 August, so don't hang about. Tap the blue button to lock in your discounted seats.

Hand luggage heroesAirline baggage fees can cost more than the flight itself, but opting for hand luggage only usually means leaving at least half of your holiday wardrobe at home. Unless, that is, you know about Jaspacks. This London-based company offers thoughtfully designed vacuum travel bags that let you bring more without the bulk. They even do a mini pump to pop in your in suitcase so you’re not caught short coming home. Marlowe v ShakespeareNcuti Gatwa (Doctor Who, Sex Education) swaps the TARDIS for the London stage later this summer, where he’ll play Christopher Marlow opposite Edward Bluemel’s (Killing Eve, My Lady Jane) William Shakespeare in Born with Teeth. This new play is a thrilling reimagining of the relationship between two literarh icons, and it comes to Wyndham’s Theatre in August. Cocktails for a cracking causeHere’s a feel-good way to finish the week. Head to Bethnal Green cocktail bar and kitchen Câv on 20 July for a laidback fundraiser in aid of The Burnt Chef Project — which aims to eradicate the mental health stigma within hospitality.
