There’s nowhere quite like The Royal Vauxhall Tavern any week of the year and at Christmas it’s a proper LGBT+ fairy grotto of fun with something for everyone. Here’s a glimpse at just some of the things on offer.
Rubbed – The 2018 Panto
Shows until 3 January
This year the team at The RVT turn their panto gaze upon the story of Aladdin and in Rubbed we find out exactly what happened after the events of the classic story. This hilarious show may not have quite the scenery or special effects of the Palladium panto, but it is huge on saucy laughs and panto sing-alongs.
