Theatre
The Wizard of Oz
New Victoria Theatre, Woking, Until 12 May
Starring ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ judge Craig Revel Horwood as The Wicked Witch Of The West, this spectacular production is a must-see.
Food
SINABRO
Battersea
Sinabro means “progress slowly but surely without noticing” in Korean. This local gem changes its set menu every two weeks, but rest assured: it’s always amazing. Serving the best French Bistro in this part of London, this restaurant is one of Marcus Wareing’s favourite spots, “not a secret to the locals and always busy, excellent food and atmosphere”.
Music
Morassi Quartet
All Saints’ Parish Church, Banstead, 11 May
As part of Banstead Arts Festival, Morassi Quartet will be performing a lunchtime concert at All Saints’ Parish Church. Their programme includes the magical “Sunrise” Quartet by Haydn, Janácek’s ˇ passionate Quartet No 1 inspired by Leo Tolstoy’s novella, and a lush late-Romantic movement by Webern.
Art
Kingston Artists Open Studios

Visit artists, designers and makers in their studios across Kingston and Teddington. Open Studios was created to support the work of artists within the local community. Visits are free of charge and artists are happy to talk about their creative process.
