Adam Riches returns with How The Bean Saved Christmas, a stand-up comedy show in which Riches impersonates the actor Sean Bean. It follows the 2025 edition, which was named a Christmas show by The Independent, The Times, Time Out and The Guardian, and this 2026 staging is an entirely new production. The premise sees the character come back to rescue Christmas once and for all.
