BEAUTY & BEAST LINE-UP
We've sorted the fair maidens from the foul monsters for our 12th August Beauty & Beast night, and it's time to share the fairytale ending with you all! Check out the podcast of the night here.
For beauties we have trapped princesses, naked cyclists, naive tourists and Russian ballerinas, whereas our beasts include stallions, stag beetles, llamas, swans and a real live dragon. It's like methadone for Game of Thrones addicts, so see you at the Phoenix for some fierce fiction on Tuesday 12th. As usual tickets are £5 on the door, which opens at 7pm for a 7.30 start.
