By popular demand (hers), you are cordially invited to ‘Clementine & Friends Christmas’ at the estate of the Pleasance, London on the tenth day of December, in the year of Two Thousand and Twenty Five.
Rosalie Minnitt, Funny Women Comedy Shorts Award winner 2025, brings her acclaimed character comedy creation, Lady Clementine, to the stage to lead the assembled in merry festive folly, reckless revelry and Yuletide decadence.
Our illustrious hostess has assembled a line-up of London’s most disgraced, infamous, and notoriously high-society jesters to get you through this bleak midwinter, namely (in order alphabetical) thus: Jordan Brookes, Alice Cockayne, Abby Govindan, Kathy Maniura, Dom McGovern, Joz Norris and Tristran Robinson.
Expect:
- Parlour games
- Prizes (including Miss Clementine’s hand in marriage)
- Mulled decadence, delirium & depravity
- Bankruptcy (spiritually)
- Feasting!
Lady Clementine says: “If you have no money, no prospects, and an unhealthy attachment to Jacob Elordi in period dramas, this is the comedy night for you. Every guest will leave with the love of their life or their money back!* So, get in, single girlies — we’re going to court!”
