For musical theatre fans, the Rose & Crown in Greenwich has always been a magnet on Tuesday nights due to their Showtune Jukebox nights that feature four hours of back-to-back video clips from the golden age to modern musicals that get the whole pub singing. But if you can’t go out on a school night, you’re in luck – this Saturday they're hosting The Big Showtune Party, and if you’re into cosplay you might just snag yourself an impressive prize.
Dress up as your favourite character from any musical and you could win yourself a 20% discount on food and drink for an entire year
The Big Showtune Party kicks off at 8pm on the 21st and includes all the usual line up musical theatre favourites – but dress up as your favourite character from any musical and you could win yourself a 20% discount on food and drink for an entire year. Even if you only return for a glass of pinot or three on Tuesdays, that prize could quickly add up to hundreds of pounds worth of savings. Even if you’re not the best dressed (sure you are, Dorothy!), there’s a second prize of 15% discount and a third place 10%.
So whether you fancy yourself as Frank’n’Furter from Rocky Horror or Elphaba from Wicked, hustle up that costume and get yourself to the Rose & Crown this Saturday. The pub is right next door to the Greenwich Theatre and easily reached via the DLR at Cutty Sark; mainline train services out of Cannon Street or take the River Boat to Greenwich (we like the last option – the boat has a bar!).
The Big Showtune Party starts at 8pm and ends when the pub closes at midnight. Regular Showtune Jukebox nights are on Tuesdays from 7pm until 11pm. You'll find the Rose & Crown at 1 Crooms Hill, Greenwich, London SE10.
