Highgate in bullet points for the coming week 

OUTDOOR COMEDY PLAY AT LAUDERDALE HOUSE: POLITE CONVERSATION: Emma is trying to host a BBQ, but her plans for a sophisticated evening are rudely interrupted by her husband’s surprise revelation. Polite Conversation is a gloriously funny new comedy play written by Andrew Crook. Bring a blanket or chair and sit back to enjoy an evening of some lighthearted fun! Don't fancy queuing up for your snacks and drinks? You can now pre-order drinks and a picnic for collection on the night. When buying your tickets online simply add your selection to your basket before checkout and we'll have it ready for you. Click to book. If you'd like to sit together without social distancing (e.g. same household, bubble), please ensure you book together. Aug 31, Sep 01, 03, 07, 08, 10. Recommended for over 16s only.

DO YOU HAVE ANY NO-LONGER-USED LAPTOPS HIDING AWAY? Would you be prepared to pay something to get the hard disk cleaned, and then give it to the Highgate NewTown Community Centre for local children? If so, please email Catherine@budgett-meakin.co.uk and we'll work out a process for collection and delivery once cleaned etc.

RECLAIM HER NAME: Throughout history, many female writers have used male pen names for their work to be published or taken seriously. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Women’s Prize for Fiction, 25 books previously published under male pen names have been re-published with the female authors’ real names printed on the covers, to honour their achievements and give them the credit they deserve. One of the authors is Mary Anne Evans buried in Highgate Cemetery. This initiative is sponsored by Bailey's; More information.
