‘Fosse’ the musical stars the choreography of 9 time award-winner Bob Fosse, known for his thoroughly modern style and signature moves such as snapping fingers, rakishly tilted bowler hats, swivelling hips, and rolling shoulders. The production is a journey in song and dance through Bob Fosse’s extraordinary career and stars 32 of Broadway’s hottest and most talented dancers. ‘Fosse’ includes rarely seen dance numbers from the choreographer’s earliest works, as well as classic Fosse numbers like ‘Steam Heat’, ‘Big Spender’, ‘Bye Bye Blackbird’, ‘Dancin Man’ and ‘Sing, Sing, Sing’.

Entering this flea market seems like a trip to the Caribbean. Meandering among the throngs of customers that cram the hundreds of stalls every weekend, one can hear a Jamaican lilt, Haitian patois and Dominican-accented Spanish. The blaring music is equally eclectic, ranging from gospel to salsa. You can buy almost anything here, from palm readings to power tools and at the southeast end’s bustling food market, you can purchase fruit, vegetables, fish and meat.

The Soweto String Quartet make their first visit to Ireland with a night at the Olympia. They came to international attention with their first major gig, at the inauguration of President Nelson Mandela. Sandile Khemese, first violinist and musical director of the SSQ, has said it was the turning point of their career and the world’s stages started to open up to them. Since then, the group have performed to packed houses at the Royal Festival Hall in London and now play Dublin as part of a wider European tour.

A dramatic new subterrenean attraction offers a torchlit trudge through the tunnels and stairways running either side of the Wien river as it passes beneath the Naschmarkt. The walk is an eerie extravaganza of flickering shadows and damp brickwork accompanied by bagpipes and drums to highlight the 30-second echo. All participants receive a flaming torch and a diploma from the organisers, the Underground Club of Vienna. The twice-weekly tours should be booked in advance as water levels can rise dramatically and cause cancellations.

The corner of Margareten Straße/Schleifmühlgasse is fast becoming a ghetto of exiled Brits. In addition to Johnny’s Irish pub and Bobby’s supermarket – stocking everything from Walker’s Crisps to Fruitgums – we now have Point of Sale, a stylish bagel bar with splendid breakfasts and a bewildering selection of wines, imported beers and schnapps for nightfowl at the Wednesday jazz and house session. A small deli section also offers take-out bagels and sandwiches.
