IF YOU LOOK FOR IT, I’VE GOT A SNEAKY FEELING YOU’LL FIND…ANOTHER MUSICAL PARODY THIS CHRISTMAS!
If you want belly laughs and to be wooed by some cardboard cue cards, then this hilarious new musical parody is one to put down on your Christmas list! Following last year’s sold-out hit, Homo Alone, The Other Palace is thrilled to present Lovers Actually written by Jodie Prenger (Coronation Street, I’d Do Anything) and Neil Hurst (Fat Friends The Musical, Casualty).
All I want for Christmas is… filthy fun, fabulous festivities, and enough naughty cheer to make Santa blush! This Christmas, we are serving up everything you could actually want – and then some, with this cheeky musical parody of Love Actually!
Will the Prime Minister finally get his Christmas wish? Will Mark steal his best friend’s new wife? Will we give the nation’s most beloved Christmas film a cheeky, festive kick in the mistletoe?! You’re damn right we will!
Get ready for another hilarious and downright dirty Christmas adventure. From Downing Street to The Other Palace, this naughty musical parody will remind you that, deep down, we’re all just Lovers Actually.
📍 Venue Description: Other Palace Studio is the intimate 120‑seat studio space within The Other Palace complex, dedicated to new musical theatre, new writing, cabaret, comedy, music and work in progress performances. Its flexible L‑shaped layout, often with unreserved seating or light tables, offers a close-up, informal setting. It’s part of a lively tier of programming that complements the main 312‑seat auditorium of The Other Palace while offering a more experimental, audience‑engaged environment.
### **The history of Other Palace Studio**
The Studio opened in February 2017 as the second performance space of what had been the St. James Theatre and was relaunched as The Other Palace earlier that year under Andrew Lloyd Webber’s ownership. With 120 seats, it was introduced to nurture new musicals and platform early‑stage performances in a cosier environment. Since its acquisition by Bill Kenwright Ltd in October 2021, the venue has maintained its mission of supporting emerging talent and work‑in‑development productions.
### **Where is the Other Palace Studio**
The Other Palace Studio is located inside the Other Palace. The theatre is off-West End on 12 Palace Street, Westminster, SW1E 5JA.
