The Den of Variety: NYE at Three Minute Theatre

Regardless of how it turns out, New Year’s Eve is always one of the most highly anticipated nights of any given year. And yet all too often people find themselves with neither a plan nor a hope as the evening swings around with a frightening speed once Christmas festivities are out of the way. Affleck’s Palace’s Three Minute Theatre is here to offer some last minute relief with their Den of Variety New Year’s Eve special, promising ‘comedy, music and de-bork-ary’ with performances from Georgia Tuohey, MajusB Abecedarian Mind, Peter Slater, Alex Klineberg and Quentin Reynolds – all on board to save you from settling in some crummy nightclub as the clock strikes midnight. The bar will be open from 7.30pm, with food and snacks available to sate your hunger before a curry at 9pm, meaning that you’ll be well fed and entertained and therefore without an excuse for doing nothing.

Tue 31 Dec, Three Minute Theatre, Afflecks Arcade, 35-39 Oldham Street, M1 1JG, Tel: 0161 834 4517, Doors open 7.30pm, £12 adv (also available OTD), www.facebook.com
