*Exhibitions include 'James Coleman' and 'Alberto Giacometti' Compton Verney, Warwickshire CV35 9HZ Using film, video and multiple slide projections with synchronised audio narration Colemans' work creates a dialogue between the ideas and conventions of visual art and psychoanalysis.

The Wind in the Willows Priory Theatre, Kenilworth 7.30pm £5 A classic story read as a child but appreciated as an adult. When the Mole escapes from the tedium of spring cleaning and embarks on a new life on the River Bank with his friend the Water Rat, he has little idea of the adventures ahead of him. And the greatest adventures of all are concerned with the vainglorious Toad, who is thrown into transports of delight – and finally prison – by his love of fast motor cars. It is a hard battle indeed for his friends, Rat, Mole and Badger to teach Mr Toad even a little sense. InfoMap
