Last year, I wrote and performed a Christmas Show called – quite brilliantly – A Show For Christmas. I didn’t know what it was going to be when I agreed to do it but I ended up really liking how it turned out and having only booked a five night run at the Battersea Arts Centre in the now defunct Grand Hall , I was always keen to do it again this year and...
So, as you may have guessed by now, I am bringing it to New York this Christmas and specifically to the Connelly Theatre in the East Village.
The show itself is a simple storytelling affair that is, if you’ll forgive me for saying so, pretty enchanting and deals, amongst other things, with the traditional seasonal concerns of loneliness, a brief scuffle in a newsagents, mobile phones, magic, the past and a long journey in a mid sized motorhome*.
I mean. It's long been my vibe to charmingly undersell things, as you doubtless know, but I reread it last week to see if I needed to change anything and I actually REALLY enjoyed it.
I think it's really good.
So. There you go.

* I believe this is known as a “Winnebago” or “RV” in “America” but the point still stands.
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
TUESDAY thru SUNDAY @ 8 PM
SATURDAY & SUNDAY @ 3 PM

Wheelchair Info
Although the building is unfortunately not ADA-compliant (it was built in the mid-1800s), the theater is on ground level and we have a secondary entrance that is wheelchair accessible (no steps). Look for the easternmost door of the building, with the small sign that says “Theater” over it. This door is usually locked, so you will need to request access from the front of house staff. -
