Winter; the nights are getting longer.

They’re also getting darker, wetter and colder; lately, it’s felt a little bit like falling down a dank, bottomless well, but at the other end of that well there is brightness, warmth and jollity – namely, The Cabaret Formerly Known as Bucket!

Christmas comes early at the greenroom with a festive edition of Manchester’s most surreal and exciting cabaret, headed up by Enfant Adorable / Terrible, Bill Bucket. As one of Santa’s sla…I mean, child labo…no…LITTLE HELPERS, Bill will be bringing goodwill to the people of the city a few weeks early. He will also be dressing for the occasion, so expect green tights.

Also expect singing sponges, science fiction, dancing elves, avant-garde disco, mince pies and more! So come, join us before the descent down the bottomless well resumes and Christmas hits you like a wet fish in the face.

…about The Cabaret Formerly Known as Bucket

A deliciously surreal cabaret promising an evening of the finest alternative entertainment in the North West: unhinged magicians, kitchen-sink puppeteers, jesters of the avant-garde & vintage burlesque beauties.

Bring your friends & dunk your head in our little bucket of wonders.
