The Scouse Red Riding Hood

Little Red is off her head. Her nan’s in bed and the wolf’s not fed. With a pan of scouse and a loaf of bread, she’s off to the forest where the woodsman led. 

What’s that noise? It’s the sound of the Royal Court Christmas show coming steaming back into town! Jam-packed with jokes and incredible live music, this is the only way to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year! 

This is a show that’s for grownups only so leave the kids at home and have a night out for yourself! 

Christmas is coming and nan is laid up as her sciatica is giving her gyp. It’s down to Little Red and her mate Big Blue to get out to her cottage in Spinney Woods with a proper scran. She wants some of that CBD rubbing oil you get from the place in St John’s that does the Spanish cleaning products too. 

There are strange creatures that lurk in Spinney Woods but they meet a lad with a big chopper who makes them feel safe. They’d better watch out for the beasties and bugs. The snakes and scorpions. The woollybacks and… wolves! 

Join the Royal Court gang on another Christmas adventure that is guaranteed to have you laughing and singing into the new year. Get down here for great food, drinks, jokes, songs and so much more! 

Nana red was safe in bed until the wolf came in but then she said: “I’ll pull your ears and smash your head then the lad with the axe is going to make you dead.” 

The show is always a sell out so book your tickets now!
