Get into the holiday spirit in Nanaimo

Christmas is coming! If you’re looking to get into the holiday mood, come to Nanaimo and check out some great holiday theatre.
 

GOD IS A SCOTTISH DRAG QUEEN CHRISTMAS

Comedian Mike Delamont is one of the world’s most beloved performers. His show, “God is A Scottish Drag Queen” is a recurring smash hit on the Fringe circuit and has since toured every corner of the globe. Delamont has a gift for discovering the ridiculous in everyday situations and showing the silliness in everything through keen observations from the perspective of, yes, a Scottish Drag Queen.

Delamont comes from Vancouver Island, and will be returning to Nanaimo on December 3 with his new holiday show, God is a Scottish Drag Queen: A Christmas Special. Expect the same riotous humour of his primary show but with a decidedly festive twist! Don’t miss it when it comes to the Port Theatre.
 

OH, CHRISTMAS TEA: A BRITISH COMEDY

James and Jamesy are two British comedians with an incredible flair for physical comedy. In their new holiday-themed show, they are confronted with a peculiarly English catastrophe: a world flooded with tea! Watch these two seasoned performers struggle to keep afloat in this joyfully funny show at the Port Theatre on December 12. This is a hilarious comedy suitable for all ages, so don’t hesitate to bring the kids!
