Nazi filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl reflects, deflects and tries to justify her past in a satirical dark comedy by Gil Kofman that takes the form of a desperately self-serving cabaret act. Jodie Markell stars as the ever-fascinating fascist, accompanied by Spiff Wiegand on accordion and violin; Richard Caliban directs.

The best tourist attraction in London
It's not difficult to see why tourists flock to London in their millions each and every year. Steeped in centuries of history and teeming with all sorts of culture, London isn't short on things to do or see. Some people may come here for the food, others for the history, some for the architecture, others for the art, music and nightlife. But there are several sights in the city that are considered unmissable for anyone popping their London cherry. To find out which of them are the most popular, researchers budget hotel chain, Travelodge, quizzed 13,500 people on their favourite London tourist attraction. The votes were counted and (drumroll please) the Tower of London came out on top. Attracting more than three million people a year, the tower houses 900 years worth of British history, from Henry VIII's codpiece to medieval torture tools to the dazzling Crown Jewels. If you have plans to visit the Tower, we recommend joining a tour led by one of the costumed Yeoman Warders (aka Beefeaters) who live and work there. Time Out contributing writer Alex Sims said: 'They're a fun bunch, filling their talks full of jokes and fun jibes, as well as nitty gritty details you won't find in the guidebook.' Covent Garden, synonymous with theatre, shopping, street entertainment and fine dining, was the second most popular place, according to Travelodge's survey. It's got the spectacular Royal Opera House, the iconic central piazza that hosts Covent Garden market and a bunch of Time Out-approved restaurants, like Savoy Grill, Tandoor Chop House and Parsons. In third place was royal HQ, Buckingham Palace. While much of the palace is private, there's still plenty for non blue-bloods to check out. Tourists can wander around the King's Gallery, take guided tours and watch the changing of the guard, which happens every morning at 10.45am. Other must-see London landmarks to make the top 10 were Big Ben, Borough Market, Camden Market and the Natural History Museum. A Travelodge spokesperson said: 'It's no surprise that the top spots were taken by iconic, historic classics like the Tower of London and Buckingham Palace, but it's also great to see people rate newer attractions such as Battersea Power Station and Sky Garden too.' If we're looking at actual visitor numbers though, data from the Association of Leading Visitor Attractions recently revealed that the British Museum was the most visited attraction in not only London, but the whole of the UK for 2024. The top 20 attractions in London, according to Travelodge Tower of London Covent Garden Buckingham Palace Natural History Museum Camden Market Big Ben Borough Market The London Eye British Museum Tower Bridge Victoria and Albert Museum Imperial War Museum Battersea Power Station Harry Potter Studio Tour Science Museum Sky Garden Hyde Park Hampton Court Palace St Paul's Cathedral Tate Modern See Time Out's guide to London's 50 best attractions here and a list of our favourite alternative attractions here.

Beyoncé at London Tottenham Hotspur Stadium: full list of banned items and the bag policy
If last year was the summer of the Eras tour, this summer is definitely for the Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour. We are mere days away from Beyoncé's return to London for a whopping six nights at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Queen Bey last graced London stages in 2023 for her Renaissance tour, and Cowboy Carter is set to be just as big and just as glam, although quite a bit more country. We've already revealed our predicted setlist and the seating plan, but before you even get into the venue you'll need to get past security. 🪩 Time Out's full guide to Beyoncé at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium 🎶 The ultimate guide to Beyoncé in London: Cowboy Carter Tour timings, dates, set list and everything you need to know. For obvious reasons, stadiums have pretty strict rules around bags and what you can have in them. Some stuff is common sense – best to leave your explosives and sharp objects at home – but what you might not know is that there is a specific size of bag you have stay within, sort of like boarding a plane except you won't get charged £80 if it's oversized, you'll just get turned away. Here's everything you need to know about Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium's bag policy to make sure your Cowboy Carter experience goes smoothly. What's the bag policy for the Cowboy Carter tour? Each person is allowed one small, personal bag, which must be A4 or smaller. Certain exemptions can be made for medical equipment, but you'll have to let the stadium know ahead of time by filling in their bag exemption form, which you can find here. Backpacks will likely be oversized. Instead, the venue recommends a clear carrier bag, a drawstring bag, or a laptop sleeve. On their website, Spurs do recommend their own club branded bags, but other brands are permitted too. You will also be allowed small clutches or handbags. The stadium states that 'all permissible bags will be carefully searched… those choosing to bring a bag to the stadium, which meets the above criteria, should be aware that they will be delayed whilst their bag is searched by our security team'. What size bag can I bring into the stadium? A4, the maximum size of bag you can bring to the concert, is 21cm long and 30cm high. Your bag has to be this size without being folded, and any bags which do not adhere to policy can be confiscated and not returned. Beyoncé Tottenham Hotspur Stadium banned items As we mentioned before, anything sharp or explosive is generally a no-go. That said, there are a few banned items you might not have considered. Here is a non-exhaustive list of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium's prohibited items: Bags which do not adhere to the specified Bag Policy (medical exemptions apply) High Visibility Clothing Bottles of any kind, glass vessels, cans, flasks Food Liquids of any kind (including water and alcohol. The stadium has multiple water fountains throughout) Laptop sleeves larger than 37cm x 31cm in size and any laptop bags Flares, smoke cannisters, air horns, laser devices Unlicensed musical instruments and other devices capable of causing a disturbance or nuisance Darts, frisbees (and similar items) Dangerous or hazardous items Illegal substances Fireworks, explosives or ammunition Knives, blades, firearms and weapons of any kind Scooters, skateboards and other skates Flags, Signs or banners that do not meet our Flag and Banner Policy Flagpoles greater than 1m in length Spray paint, large industrial style 'permanent' marker pens Transmitting devices Professional cameras (including cameras with interchangeable lenses) and recording devices Unauthorised fliers, illegal merchandise items, illegal charity collection utensils Motorbike helmets Animals (except service dogs and assistance dogs) Prams and pushchairs Umbrellas are allowed as long as they are smaller than 1m in length. As a general rule, if you have any doubt, air on the side of caution and leave it at home.

Six of Sydney's favourite personalities have shared their secret spots for a perfect day
When a friend visits Sydney from out of town, chances are you don't rush to tell them about how good it is to get a picture in front of the ferries at Circular Quay, or splash in the waves at Bondi Beach. Sydney's icons are famous enough – and it's our hidden gems, the places that Sydneysiders carve out time for outside of our own 9-5, that are really worth recommending. With that in mind, we got top picks from some of Sydney's favourite people. First up: the man behind Sydney's fastest mullet. Electrician turned ultramarathon runner Nedd Brockmann, who's lived in Randwick for the past four years, has shared his top spots to run, recover and refuel in the Harbour City. FYI, over at you can now book a place on a Brockmann-approved running tour around the CBD, then schedule a recovery session at Surry Hills bathhouse Capybara before booking in for dinner at one of the athlete's favourite restaurants in the city, Luke Mangan's Luc San in Potts Point. Olympian Jess Fox 's top Sydney itinerary is also active. Jess's perfect day starts with kayaking at dawn on Sydney Harbour, flying across the Jamieson Valley with Scenic World 's Beyond Skyway experience, then heading to Theo's Rooftop in her local area, Penrith, for sunset drinks. Conveniently, her itinerary is also, available to book via the site. Turns out Aria-winning artist Budjerah is an adventurous guy, because he recommends a sunrise balloon ride over Camden, followed by a surfing session at URBNSURF, rounded out with the incredible BridgeClimb Burrawa Aboriginal Climb experience. Content kings The Inspired Unemployed are high-energy guys – they recommend having a "mystery picnic" in the Royal Botanic Gardens, jet boating on Sydney Harbour with Oz Jet Boating and doing paddle board yoga with Manly-based yoga studio Flow mOcean. Podcaster, writer and comedy queen Lucinda Price (Froomes) is all about balance – with recommendations spanning from a snorkelling session at Shelly Beach to winding up at the Ace Hotel for dinner and drinks (with a backstage tour of Sydney Opera House thrown in the mix for a bit of culture). Finally, one of our city's most beloved chefs: the mighty Dan Hong (Mr Wong, MuMu, Queen Chow) has put together a flavour-led itinerary that will take Sydneysiders on a food tour of Chinatown and to an immersive oyster-tasting experience on the Hawkesbury. Minister for Tourism Steve Kamper says he agrees Sydney needs to do a better job of highlighting its many hidden gems, quoting Time Out's recent global round-up, which saw Sydney rank as the fifth-best city in the world for culture: 'Sydney was just ranked as one of Time Out's top five global cities for culture, but when you ask Australians about Sydney they'll say 'I've already seen the Harbour Bridge'. What is clear in the research is that our icons alone are not enough to get people to visit and revisit Sydney. We need to do a better job at showcasing all our city has to offer, we need to be more than our icons.' At Time Out Sydney, we make it our mission to shine a light on Sydney's best bits on a daily basis, so we're big fans of this approach. And .
