Whether you're staying in or heading out we've got it covered. Leave the working week behind with our five top picks.

Enjoy the one and only (well actually, that's not true) Dave Gorman

A man of many talents, not least his ever-changing facial hair, comic Dave Gorman brings his new stand-up show to the Grand Canal Theatre this weekend.
