Daily: Afternoon Coffee @ Hulu
TRB’s new affordable concept Hulu (see our review here) is extra affordable for coffee breaks. For just RMB58, you can grab both a coffee of your choice and one of their luxuriously fluffy soufflés (we’re partial to the one that comes drowning in Grand Marnier).
Daily, 2-4pm; Hulu.
Mar 27: Jane Eyre
Chapterhouse Theatre brings its production of Jane Eyre to the capital for an evening of gothic intrigue, complicated relationships and feminist awakening. Jane – she’s just like us, really.
Tue Mar 27, 7pm; RMB60-280; Rulun Lecture Hall of Renmin University (tickets via en.damai.cn). See event listing.
Mar 28: Zedd
Think you don’t know Zedd? Think again – the DJ’s hits have charted the world over. Surely you’ve heard ‘Break Free,’ his collab with Ariana Grande. Or perhaps you’ve heard ‘Clarity,’ his track with British singer Foxes that won him a Grammy for Best Dance Recording. And you’ve definitely heard ‘Stay,’ featuring Alessia Cara, the single that lingered on the Billboard Hot 100 for weeks of 2017. And then there’s ‘The Middle,’ which debuted at last month’s Super Bowl and has been on Spotify’s Top Hits chart ever since. Maybe you actually haven’t heard any of these. And maybe that doesn’t matter. Because what does matter is that Zedd’s show at Sir Teen is going to be certifiably crazy and undeniably danceable. Book in advance.
Wed Mar 28, RMB260 (presale); Sir Teen, visit weidan.com for tickets. See event listing.
Mar 29: Tango Beginner Boot Camp
So, you think you can’t dance? Well, now’s the time to learn. You may as well dive right into it with the tango – the Argentinian-Uruguayan dance is included on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List, so, you know, you could do worse. Luckily, BJBTango is offering a ‘Beginner Boot Camp’ throughout March. Taught by visiting tango extraordinaire Eddy Hernandez, the classes will be fun, hot and intensive. Learn the basics, and maybe even more, over the 8-week course, and you’ll be heating up the floor in no time. Single classes are also available if you just want to drop in.
Thur Mar 29, 7.20pm; Sundays Mar 10-31, 2.30pm; RMB200 (single class), RMB1,200 (8-class package); Hot Cat Club (to register, add WeChat ID: Ellebanna891).
