Twisted Christmas

Twisted Christmas returns this year with its deliciously depraved take on the holiday season.

“Nasty but nicely comic entertainment…in ‘Owdyado’s twisted world nothing is ever what it seems” Lyn Gardner

‘Owdyado Theatre’s Twisted Christmas returns to the South-West this year with its deliciously depraved take on the holiday season.

Featuring writers from Cornwall and across the UK, this selection of 7 original micro-plays includes tales of how to buy the perfect gift for your unloved ones, the dark side of Christmas cracker jokes, and one woman’s maniacal plot to murder Santa Claus.

Influenced by cult classics such as Inside No.9, The Twilight Zone and Roald Dahl’s Tales of the Unexpected, Twisted Christmas promises a darkly comic evening of macabre mini-plays all with a festive flavour!

Twisted Tales is presented by Cornish touring company ‘Owdyado Theatre. They are well-known amongst their fans for their unique style of slick, detailed and comedic work. It will be performed by company regular Connie Crosby and newcomer Amber Clark. Daniel Richards (one half of Cornwall’s longest-running cult Christmas show ‘Christmas.Time’) directs the piece.
