Last Christmas, the Hopcrofts’ seasonal drinks party for a few select friends and guests turned out a near-disaster. This Christmas, at the Jacksons’, it has been even worse. What on earth is going to happen next year when they all meet up at the Brewster-Wrights’?

Set in three kitchens across Christmas past, present and future, catastrophes and calculated social climbing sees one couple triumph at the decline of the others.

Written by one of the UK’s most popular playwrights and presented by Alan Ayckbourn aficionados Dick and Lottie, this award winning comedy is as funny as it ever was in its fortieth anniversary year.
