do you know York well? I don't know it as well as I should do. I tend to gravitate towards Leeds more than York. I love Christmas in York -- because they don't seem to do that whole Santa and Pepsi Cola and rubbish lights. They've got beautiful white fairy lights and holly and walking through the Shambles. It feels like proper Christmas. It's a beautiful city. The Guinea Pig Club is at York Theatre Royal from Friday, October 5 to Saturday, October 27 at 7.30pm (with 2pm Thu and 2.30pm Sat matinees).
