Carols and Cocktails

Synopsis:
Merge all the cringey office Christmas parties into one, add in some raucous carol singing and many a cocktail - you're beginning to imagine Alphabetti's Christmas Show. This Christmas, office IT gurus Phil & John are reinventing themselves, both with the secret aim of snogging Carol from PR. Plan of Action: 1. Form a band - Unfortunately nobody else wanted to play with them so they formed a musical duo. 2. Get booked to play at the office Christmas party - the boss said no, but they don't care they're going to go guerrilla! So, they've got all the classic Christmas songs printed out for everybody to join in and the barman is mixing up some tasty cocktails, what else could go wrong? Well to start they're both trying to woo the same lady. . .

WOT has announced the first showcase of its 2014 season. Each showcase is themed and on Monday 24 and Thursday 27 February it will present script-in-hand performances of six plays which ask Does The One Sin Of Mine Wipe Away All The Good Stuff I've Done?
