How to make the most of your Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Khaleej Times recommends...
The play's the thing
We've got something a little close to home for you this weekend. New hit play Park, written by Manav Kaul and directed by Gaggan Mudgal, will be staged at the Khaleej Times office in Al Quoz at 6pm on Saturday evening. The piece centres on three men as they battle over the choice seat on a park bench. With each character's claim obviously being more legitimate than the others', laughs are sure to ensue. Seating is strictly limited, so to attend please email maria@khaleejtimes.com or call 04 405 0801 for tickets.
