Sh!t-faced Showtime: A Pissedmas Carol

A Christmas Carol played straight by everyone except the one cast member who has been drinking.

SeasonalWest EndAges 16+

At Leicester Square Theatre.

The company's standing trick is that the text is performed properly and one actor, chosen that night, is genuinely drunk, so the rest of the cast have to get Dickens to the end around whatever that person does. It returns to this theatre every Christmas, which tells you the joke holds up better than it has any right to. Scrooge, the three spirits and Tiny Tim all survive in some condition.

About two hours including the introduction and an interval, and most performances start at 21:30. From £24.50, with 15% off for groups of six or more. Flashing lights and smoke.
