Friday 1st May, 10am – TICKET GO ON GENERAL SALE
Glitz! Showgirls! A giant, gaudy elephant! This 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?
This Christmas, The Wardrobe Theatre (makers of Notting Hell, The Good, The Bad & The Coyote Ugly, MDH: Puppets Do A Movie and many more) and Front Room Theatre (Weston-super-Mare’s award-winning fringe venue in their 4th year of producing their own hugely popular original comedy Christmas shows) have joined forces to present a mash-up musical to put the hum in your humbug. Moulin Scrooge is a fast, smart and adult-only new comedy that promises to be your best Christmas show night out – past, present or yet to come!
