Badjelly's Bad Christmas

Chickenshed, Chase Side, London

Chickenshed pays homage to the late Spike Milligan this Christmas with Badjelly's Bad Christmas, a magical, musical festive show featuring some of the writer's best-loved characters.

Christmas is a time for celebration and family, but Granddad has lost his precious baubles and there is something distinctly odd about his new girlfriend! When squabbling sisters Kate and laura discover the truth they set off on a journey to stop nonsense turning into sense and Badjelly the Witch ruining Christmas fun for all time.

Through the lands of the Ning Nang Nong via the Bumbly Boo and on to Itchy Koo they do battle with Badjelly and her slightly disgruntled sisters. Sir Nobonk would ride to the rescue, if he could just remember where he'd pu it. And as for the King of the Twytts...
