Reviewed by Chelsea
I honestly had so much fun at a little preview of A Very Naughty Christmas for its first round in London! The manager explained how they’ve had an amazing run in Australia over the past few years, creating a spectacular adult themed Christmas show. I didn’t really know what to expect, but it’s a show that truly has it all: stand-up comedy, song parodies of Christmas carols and classic pop songs packed with innuendos (I have had ‘When I Think About You, I Touch My Elf’ going round in my head all day), skits, and their website even says there will be some burlesque involved, among other bits of ‘silliness’.
The cast members were so amazing, and super confident, really engaged with the audience, and made everyone feel so welcome and at ease for A Very Naughty Christmas. The outfits were fantastic! Such lovely festive colours; a full sequin suit (which had a great surprise hiding underneath, may I add), gorgeous red lingerie, and an elf with incredibly short shorts. I can only imagine what else they have in store!
I was laughing so much, I nearly cried, and my cheeks were hurting after. That sort of funny where your crazy laugh slips out unexpectedly. A fabulous concept, and I cannot wait to see A Very Naughty Christmas in full when it launches from November 28th. It is a fantastic night for dates, mates and every adult in your life to go and have a bevy with some top tier comedy! The entire audience had such a great time, everyone was laughing, getting involved, and it was a really great atmosphere. Just such a great way to unwind and enjoy the festive season – we need more entertainment like this!
I really cannot recommend A Very Naughty Christmas enough – you will have a really great time with this Australian group, and I guarantee you’ll be left wanting more!
I rate this 5/5, easy! – I had such a great evening, and I cannot wait to see it in full later this year!
Rating: 5/5
