A Christmas Carol - The Musical Staged Concert at the Dominion Theatre
This Christmas, a brand-new, musical staged concert of A Christmas Carol will brighten up all of our festive seasons - those past, present and yet to come!

Death Drop at the Garrick Theatre
A Dragatha Christie Murder-Mystery Murder can be such a Drag. Starring RuPaul’s Drag Race superstars Courtney Act and Monét X Change, this brand-new comedy is an historic West End first bringing together a full cast of leading drag performers, in a hilarious murder mystery like nothing you’ve ever seen before. It's 1991 and a gaggle of guests gather on Tuck Island for a soirée like no other. The tension rises as the outrageous guests reveal their suspicious and sordid pasts, and one by one they sashay away, until at the last, nerve-shredding, side-splitting moment the surviving guests find out who-dunnit! This rampant, raucous, ridiculous romp of a murder mystery has gallons of gags, and more twists and turns than a drag queens wig. Written by Holly Stars Based on an idea by Christopher D. Clegg
