"Last year, character comedians Adam Riches and John Kearns joined forces for an archly silly tribute to crooners Michael Ball and Alfie Boe. Now Riches is back with another leftfield celebrity riff as he gives his Game of Thrones-era Sean Bean impression (as seen on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown and his Edinburgh show Dungeons'n'Bastards) a yuletide twist."
"Are you ready for snozzcumbers and dream-catchers, for norphans and whizzpoppers? A stellar team have come together for this world premiere of Roald Dahl's children's classic, with a script courtesy of Tom Wells (Jumpers for Goalposts) and puppetry by the masterful Toby Olie (Spirited Away). John Leader heads up the cast for this beloved story of an orphan befriending a giant; Daniel Evans directs."
Adam Riches merges his Game of Thrones-era Sean Bean impression with a yuletide twist in The 12 Beans of Christmas, offering leftfield celebrity riffing and comic parody. The BFG receives a world-premiere staging at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre with a Tom Wells script, Toby Olie puppetry and John Leader starring, directed by Daniel Evans. Count Arthur Strong resumes a tangential, bewildered portrayal of Charles Dickens in a deliberately chaotic A Christmas Carol, featuring terrible tricks, awkwardly repurposed props and a persistent bassline of confusion. ZooNation presents Ebony Scrooge, a hip-hop-infused reimagining casting Scrooge as a fashion-label boss who must learn the true meaning of happiness.
