Last chance to see

■ Jane Eyre

Reinvented for the 21st century, Sally Cookson's show is full of textured emotion and invention. A terrific score gives the ballast it needs, and Madeleine Worrall is outstanding as the lost child who grows into a woman that does not want to sell herself short in any way.

Old Vic, Bristol (0117 987 7877), until Saturday.

■ Kate Bush

Arguably the most unprecedented live comeback in rock history: Kate Bush returns to the former Hammersmith Odeon for the first time in 35 years. Tickets go on sale on Friday at 9.30am. Hammersmith Apollo, London (0844 249 1000) 26 August to 19 September.

■ Amadeus

Rupert Everett was surely born to play the flamboyant Hapsburg court composer, Antonio Salieri, top of the perch until the young Mozart comes along, in Peter Shaffer's barn-storming drama. Here, he gets his chance. Festival theatre, Chichester (01243 781312), 12 July to 2 August.

■ Henri Matisse: the Cut-Outs

A month to go before Matisse's radical and lovely late works in cut paper and colour sing at the Tate. Tate Modern, London (020-7887 8888) 17 April to 7 September.
