Adults-only festive night of inappropriate comedy from Jim Davidson OBE at Babbacombe Theatre.
Jim Davidson OBE is bringing his Christmas Cracker to Babbacombe Theatre on Friday 11 and Saturday 12 December, with both nights starting at 7:30 pm. It's an adults-only festive night of comedy, and it's billed as a bit of a return to form for Davidson, who's coming off the back of The Next Chapter.
If you've followed his recent years, you'll know the narrative he's been running with. He frames himself as a comedy legend who's been shadow-banned and cancelled, and he talks about the 'woke snowflakes' who've tried to shut him down. He describes the show as being for crowds who crave comedy without a filter, and he pitches freedom of speech as 'the gift that keeps on giving'. The set itself is a festive night of uproarious, inappropriate comedy, full of cheeky one-liners and spicier humour, and it's strictly for adults.
Babbacombe Theatre is on Babbacombe Downs in Torquay, and it's been a part of the English Riviera for over eighty years. It's well known for its family variety shows, especially since Matpro Limited took over in 1986, so this adults-only night is a bit of a departure from its usual run. The theatre is accessible, with disabled access, wheelchair spaces, and a loop system for the hearing impaired.
