Counting down the days to our annual pantomime! It’s A Christmas Carol, but Scrooge’s greatest crime, over being tight-fisted money hungry boss, is that he forgets his northern heritage and chooses to spend his Christmas in… London! Filled with smash hits like ‘Let it Sludge’ and ‘Away in a Pret-a-Manger’, A Christ’s-mas Carol is the best, silliest and most over-the-top way to celebrate bridgemas. Join us on Tuesday 21st and Wednesday 22nd (if you want to be part of our Northern Soc social!) in the Yusuf Hamied Theatre, tickets £5 https://cads.tessera.events/
