SUMMARY:Moulin Scrooge at The Wardrobe Theatre for Christmas
DESCRIPTION:The Wardrobe Theatre has teamed up with Front Room Theatre in Weston-Super-Mare\, for this year’s Christmas show at the Old Market venue. \nMoulin Scrooge is an adult-only new comedy featuring glitz\, showgirls\, a gaudy elephant in a mash-up musical with plenty of laughs. \nThis flamboyant nightclub-cum-bordello writhing with tassels\, tits and tuberculosis is the number one pleasure-spot where every vivacious Victorian with a taste for the unrestrained wants to be this Christmas Eve. Everyone\, that is\, except stuffy old Ebby Scrooge – a greedy\, hateful miser who detests merriment. But when some spooky ghosts push his buttons\, can-can Scrooge find love and learn the true meaning of a jolly winter festival before his soul is doomed forever? \nThe Wardrobe Theatre is one of the best venues for some festive shows for grown-ups\, having previously staged Notting Hell\, The Good\, The Bad & The Coyote Ugly\, MDH: Puppets Do A Movie\, Reservoir Mogs\, Rocky Shock Horror\, Oedipuss In Boots and Goldilock\, Stock & Three Smoking Bears.

SUMMARY:The Last Five Years - Ustinov Studios Bath
DESCRIPTION:The new production of The Last Five Years is a Built by Barn production from Barn Theatre\, Reading Rep Theatre and Theatre Royal Bath. It will star Martha Kirby as Kathy and Guy Woolf as Jamie. \nThe hit musical follows two New Yorkers in a relationship that’s lasted five years so far. The question is whether they can remain united as their lives move in different directions. \nA twisting plot sees Jamie’s side of the story start at the moment they meet. Cathy’s story starts at the end moving backwards. The pair meet once in the middle. \nIt’s a smart\, entertaining and heartfelt musical. \nDirector Hal Chambers said that he’s been longing to direct the show for over 20 years\, being a “passionate admirer” of Jason Robert Brown’s work. He called the storytelling music and emotional depth in the show “unmatched”. \n“The narrative structure\, with Cathy moving backwards through time and Jamie forwards\, creates a compelling theatrical puzzle reminiscent of a Christopher Nolan film\,” he says. \n“It feels like a haunting memory play – dreamlike\, poetic\, and full of magical realism. Our production will lean into that\, using bold imagery and movement to explore the ghosts of a relationship and the raw beauty of love and heartbreak. The music is breath-taking – joyful\, witty\, devastating – and I can’t wait to bring it to life with our cast. Performed in intimate venues\, our vision promises a deeply personal and emotionally resonant Last Five Years that captures the show’s unique intimacy and power.” \nUstinov Studio\, Theatre Royal Bath 25 November – 03 January 2026

SUMMARY:Milo Edwards: How Revolting! Sorry To Offend at The Gaffe Comedy Club
DESCRIPTION:Milo Edwards will be in Bristol this December with his show How Revolting! Sorry to Offend. \nHe’s noticed that some people seem to think that he’s posh. But he isn’t posh\, unless you’re asking his brother. Milo is from Essex. He once got a temporary tattoo on his arse.In How Revolting! Sorry to Offend\, Milo is answering the salient questions of modern British life\, such as: Who are the posh and what are they up to? Why can’t Danny Dyer and Boris Johnson fulfil their true destinies? And\, under what circumstances can a man reasonably be expected to learn Dutch? \nAgainst a backdrop of a Britain in an advanced state of decay\, a country where the post might arrive every other day and where visiting your dentist involves a day trip and sandwiches\, Milo asks: it’s a revolting state of affairs but are we really offended? \nFind out why spite might be the answer\, why owning an air fryer is one of the few discernible social identities left and why the Falklands War was the last and truest expression of Britishness. \nFeatured Image: Joshua Peroti
