n extra day this February (thanks, leap year!), means you’ve got even more time to get out and about and enjoy the city this month. And the good news is that after a grindingly slow January, the city’s events calendar is finally hotting up again as we inch towards spring. A new season on its way means

a new programme of shows at Cambridge Arts Theatre, and with a star-studded selection of top-flight touring productions headed our way, from spine-tingling thrillers to stunning operas to world-class comedies, there’s lots to look forwards to, as we find out on page 19. Also, don’t miss Twilight at the Museums, which sees the city’s top museums open their doors after hours for a chance to see the collections in a whole new light, plus interactive theatre, sensory experiences, illuminations and more. Get the lowdown on page 25. If hibernating with a great read is more your current mood, pick up a copy of Cambridge author Menna van Praag’s new book, The Sisters Grimm . A feminist fairytale for the modern age set mostly in Cambridge, there’s plenty to delight in this spellbinding novel, not least the gorgeous, lyrical descriptions of the city’s familiar sights. Find out more in our Book Club on page 28. Food-wise, we’ve got news on the next Eat Cambridge festival, a luxurious winter recipe to try and a review of Scott’s All Day, a pizzeria and brunch spot that the Mill Road community has quickly taken to its heart. Have a read from page 49. You’ll also notice that this issue includes the inaugural Eating Out in Cambridgeshire guide, a brand-new supplement
