Your Christmas Needs Crackers!
This year’s B2 Xmas show is Crackers – a brand new, crazy Christmas comedy packed to the gunnels with live music and laughter.
Leonard’s life is a complete and utterly weird pantomime. Trapped behind the checkout at Myrrh’s Bazaar, a cut-price Christmas shop, he longs to escape, find true love and live his dreams. But his boss, the astonishingly evil entrepreneur Archibald Myrrh, has other abominable plans…
As ever, the B2 Xmas show has been created especially for grown-ups so it’s perfect for office parties or anyone who wants to enjoy a Christmas night out away from the kids. Be warned though, the characters in Crackers all suffer from severe potty mouth, so expect to hear some bad language and sexual references from the outset!
This compact show only lasts around an hour, so it leaves you plenty of time to complete your evening with a few celebratory drinks at the bar or a festive feast in our first floor restaurant.
What’s more, a special Christmas meal deal is available. The deal includes a pre-show hot main course with any standard size drink and a ticket for the show – all for just £28! To book the Crackers Package, please call the Box Office on 024 7655 3055.
Festive fun for grown-ups.
Please note: further to earlier publicity material there is no performance on Sat 24 Dec.

“What a cracker! Crackers is delightfully anti-Christmas and perfect pantomime rolled into one.”
— The Leamington Courier
“Ruthlessly funny, shamelessly rude, bloodythirsty and definitely a child-free zone… A festive treat for grown-ups who don’t want to grow up too much.” ****
— The Coventry Telegraph
