THE SKETCHY XMAS VARIETY SHOW

Presented by The Cape Town Sketch Comedy Club in collaboration with The Outlore, Better Late, Comedy in Common, Unhinged & Soapboxing.

It’s that time of year again… When the lights twinkle, the smell of synthetic pine drifts through the air, your dreaded family xmas lunch is looming and you’re faced with so many choices of fun things to do… Look no further!

The Sketchy Xmas Variety Show is here! A festive, multi-genre, sleigh-ride of comedy, chaos, and audience suggestions.

PRE-SHOW: 18:00 — 19:00

The office party kicks off the second you walk through the door.

Settle in for:
– Xmas Speed Dating
– Sit on Santa’s Lap
– Photos with the Xmas Labubu

– Snacks + Xmas Cocktails
– An awkward office-style family dinner simulation

Grab a drink, mingle, and prepare for the most festively unhinged night of the year.
