Tonight’s performance at Wokingham’s Living Advent Calendar came courtesy of Woodley Theatre.

The group performed Christmas Cheer, a short 15-minute drama at the Broad Street Tavern in Broad Street.

It was a performance of seasonal poems, readings and skits aimed at getting guests into a festive mood just days before Christmas.

The event aimed to reflect on the different sides of Christmas, making people in the pub laugh, reflect, chuckle and groan.

And as you can see from our pictures, the event was hugely appreciated.

There are now just three days left in the Living Advent Calendar – and every one will be a cracker.
