Nearby The Scoop at More London Free Festival

The Scoop at More London, next to City Hall, is a huge open air amphitheatre next to the Thames, making it an ideal al fresco venue for a Free Festival of music, theatre, film and fringe performances. Running from 8th June to 30th September 2011, The Merry Opera Company kick things off with 'Troy Boy', "a new and witty translation of Offenbach's La Belle Hélène". Open-air theatre company The Pantaloons follow their fringe production of Macbeth last year with a new adaptation of The Canterbury Tales. Further free theatrical entertainment comes in the form of Iphigenia on Thames (18 & 25 June) presented by Open Door Opera, followed by hard hitting dance drama Crime of the Century (22 - 24 June) by the acclaimed Chickenshed theatre company. Musical interludes are performed by the Montana Four, K-Groove, and London-based blues band Pacifico Blues in a series of free music concerts. Finally, for three weeks from 14th September until the end of the Free Festival on 30th September, the big screen plays host to nine films including Alice in Wonderland, The Kings Speech, The Social Network, True Grit as well as old favourites The Manchurian Candidate and Dirty Dancing. This is what al fresco summer entertainment should be about: no tickets necessary - so you can just turn up and enjoy the show, outdoors. What better way to make the most of summer - and it's all for free.About The Scoop at More London
