Tate Late
Tonight’s Late at Tate takes on the whimsical title of The Lovers, The Dreamers and Me, inviting visitors to join in a musical journey into a lost world populated by dinosaurs, rainbows, mountains and rivers. Yes, this is still the Tate and it is still London, but suspend your disbelief for a moment and put your imagination into the hands of a cast of musicians and artists bringing the galleries to life at night, and allow yourself to drift on islands afloat under strange stars. Well, it beats the Thames.

Cognitive
We don’t know about you, but our innermost thoughts are pretty deep, dark and dirty – which is why we’re not sharing. Scottee however has no such qualms, and tonight’s series of one–on–one, 20 minute dance encounters promises to be a revealing (and quite likely disturbing) trip inspired by his childhood therapy sessions in the attic bedroom at the RVT. Book in advance and give him a call from the foyer to be admitted upstairs to see what happens behind closed doors.

Retro Games Arcade
Miss the days of popping down the arcade and slamming your fists ad hoc into game controls to try and win a bout of Street Fighter? Well now you can relive your misappropriated youth with some free play on this showcase of retro games including Mega–Drives, Gameboys and Super NES’s, complete with pixellated images, porn–esque soundtracks and Sonic Boooooooms! After 7pm is over 18s only so avoid the kiddy winkles and stay out late.

Sink The Pink
We’ve never put much store into the ‘dance like nobody’s watching’ adage because let’s face it – they’re also pointing and laughing most of the time too. But tonight you’re being positively encouraged to bring the Funky Chicken, the Robot and the MC Hammer down to a dance–off that would bend the lisp right out of Louis Spence’s tongue. Hosted by Ma Butcher and featuring performances from Sink the Pink Dancers, TheDiscoKid and Breakfast Club, remember to pirouette for prizes as DJs Susan Okereke and Bright Light Bright Light remind you that your disco needs you. Even if you could do without it.

Karaoke Room
Bring your power ballads, your pop classics and your Dad rock – for now you have a place to vent your vocal talents that doesn’t come with an entourage of Japanese businessmen or a sparkly pink microphone. Opened this week, the chic Karaoke room at Paradise holds up to 15, has an extensive library of over 7500 songs, musically themed food and drink packages, stage clothes and a ‘booze’ button for that much needed shot of Dutch courage. Works for Courtney Love anyway.

Don Juan in Love
Catch some free theatre as the sun sets over the Scoop amphitheatre and Don Juan gets frisky with his blade. The ladies man and notorious lover charms and murders his way through this production, until his victims come back to seek vengeance and a brave young woman turns out to be both his downfall and his only chance at salvation. Check out the post–show discussions exploring sexual politics and knife culture – might come in handy on those dark walks home, eh?
