DATE

November 24, 2025

Book in for glamour, glitz and festive spectacle at The Crazy Bear in Stadhampton

Would you like to step into a world of glitz, glamour and festive mischief? The Crazy Bear Stadhampton is once again throwing its legendary Christmas Cabaret Parties, and they’re more spectacular than ever. This winter, the countryside hideaway in Oxfordshire will sparkle with sequins, song, aerial thrills and late-night dancing across a string of dazzling dates.  

 
Between 7pm & 10pm, guests are treated to world-class performances; think West End-level artists, burlesque, aerialists, samba dancers and more. After the cabaret, the house DJ takes over and keeps the party going until 1am.  

Included in the evening is a decadent English & Thai buffet, setting the tone for a celebratory night of festive fun and indulgent entertainment. With themes of drama, decadence and surprise, the Crazy Bear experience is about as far from ordinary as Christmas gets. 

The cabaret is led by a rotating cast of show-stopping hosts: 

  • Darren Charles: a West End star who brings wit, glamour and energy.  
  • Dee Riley; a multi-award-winning magician and master of ceremonies, adding theatrical sparkle.  
  • Ruby St James; sultry songstress and cabaret showgirl, channelling Old Hollywood in style.  

They’re joined by a lineup of standout singers: 

  • Moni Tivony; a soulful powerhouse with a voice that spans gospel to pop.  
  • Simone Kaye; a charismatic vocalist known from The Voice and I Can See Your Voice.  
  • Jermain Jackman; The Voice UK winner, delivering vintage soul with a modern twist. The stage also comes alive with burlesque and aerial performances, captivating dancers such as Serafina, Fallon Dee and Didi Derriere, and gravity-defying aerialist Matthew Smith elevate the evening into a full-on spectacle.  

 
Dates for the Christmas Cabaret nights are: Friday 28th & Saturday, 29th November, and, for December: Thursday 4th, Friday 5th, Wednesday 10th, Thursday 11th (limited availability), Friday 12th, Thursday 18th, Friday 19th & Saturday 20th (limited availability). 

Tickets start from £79.50pp, and you’ll want to dress to impress; this is an adults-only night of sparkle, elegance and joy.  

Book your spot now before the sold-out nights vanish. This is the kind of Christmas escapade that feels like stepping into a totally different (and fabulously fun) world.
