Ditch the mall masses and the supermarket rush - it’s time to get silly!
Basement Theatre’s festive festival Silly Season is back for a second year of big laughs and the best blowout this side of New Year's Eve! 21 of the hottest, naughtiest, funniest, and liveliest events are taking over Basement Theatre for 8 days this December.
The theatre will be bursting with two, three, four, sometimes FIVE events happening each night. And that’s not even including the free performances popping up in the bar to keep the big vibes going between shows. Plus, mark Friday 5 December in your calendar - that's when the ultimate end-of-year bash SLEIGH 4 U takes over!
