There will Be Tinsel

Step into the magic of the season at our Christmas Spectacular! Join us for an evening filled with poems and stories that capture the true spirit of Christmas. Bring your family, work colleagues and friends to experience a cheerful atmosphere that embraces the magic of Christmas.

With a record player on stage playing Christmas records, a stage covered in Christmas lights and tinsel, this is the perfect show for nights out in December with audiences treated to relaxed, seasonal festive poems and stories that have already proved popular at Christmas shows in recent years, from writer, theatre-maker and Radio 4 regular John Osborne. From the creator of hit theatre show John Peel’s Shed and Sky 1 sitcom After Hours, directed by Craig Cash. Stewart Lee is a big fan of John’s wonderful storytelling, and you will be too.
