A look ahead to the month's best things to see and do in Yorkshire and beyond

Do you remember Ally McBeal? Of course you do. It was, for a short time in the late 1990s, the hottest thing on TV — and Vonda Shepard, who provided the music shot to mainstream success as a result. Shepard has enjoyed touring the UK in recent years ; and now she's back again, playing old McBeal favourites and songs from a new album, Red Light, Green Light.Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo

This all-male comedy ballet company aren't from Monte Carlo at all. They're originally from New York. But don't let that, their fake eyelashes or their brilliant comedy timing fool you: their dancing is always en pointe. The programme includes Swan Lake Act II.It's Shakespeare, Jim, but not as we know it. Award-winning theatre ensemble The Faction bring their trademark style to create “a dazzling distillation of Shakespeare's fast-paced tragedy” for two performers.

How about this for a quirky CV? Richard E Grant sprang to fame as the drunken, flamboyant Withnail , and went on to star in Doctor Who, Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones and Star Wars. He's in Harrogate to talk about his new memoir, A Pocketful of Happiness, inspired by his late wife, Joan.Joanne McNally: The Prosecco Express

The brilliantly blunt-speaking Irish stand-up star, who plays to packed houses and enjoys sold out Edinburgh runs, has already had vast amounts of success with this show, told in self-confessional style, about what it's like to be a single woman in “mid-to-early-late thirties”. Now she's taking it on the road again. Coming to Leeds in December.

Nick Payne was the youngster ever winner of the Evening Standard's Best Play Award for this two-hander about 'quantum multiverse theory, love and honey.' If you liked Sliding Doors and Kate Atkinson's Life After Life, chances are you'll love this. The i newspaper called it 'a tender, funny, piercing play, which twinkles with tantalising might-have-beens.
