👋 From the Editor
Happy Sunday, London! Rabbits rabbits rabbits — it's March! This week is genuinely stacked: an internationally celebrated immersive theatre show in its final days, CBC recording a live comedy show downtown, grunge at the Roxbury, +LIVE+ on Saturday, and the Knights at home three times. I've done the research so you don't have to. Scroll on! — Meg 🍁

⭐ Pick of the Week
🎭 Theatre · All week — closes Sat, Mar 7
Mrs Krishnan's Party — Last Chance This Week
📅 Running through Saturday, March 7
📍 Grand Theatre, Auburn Stage — 471 Richmond St
⏱ 75 minutes, no intermission · Ages 8+
🍛 Food is cooked and served during the show
If you haven't grabbed tickets yet, this is your last week and I am genuinely begging you not to miss it. Mrs Krishnan's Party transforms the Grand's Auburn Stage into the back room of a corner store mid-Onam celebration — spontaneous dancing, live cooking, actual fragrant food drifting through the theatre while the story unfolds around you.
The New Zealand Herald called it "a joyful, highly theatrical celebration." Today's 2pm matinee is a perfect Sunday entry point — but any night this week will do beautifully.
Each day gets its own morning email — this is the cheat sheet.
