"After years of sell-out shows at Above The Stag, the creative team ventures into pastures new at the Charing Cross Theatre. Nestled in the West End, the show is finally where it belongs, in amongst the country’s leading theatrical offerings, only a stone’s throw from Soho, celebrating the LGBT+ community and demonstrating that the genre has endless potential... A must for all good boys, girls and non-binaries, not to mention the naughty ones, Sleeping Beauty Takes A Prick! is truly the pride of pantoland"
