A Christmas Carol

Joy to all mankind? Bah!

Spend an evening with Ebenezer Scrooge: a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, clutching covetous old miser. Bah!

Watch horrified as Ebenezer Scrooge is haunted by four creepy ghosts (wooo-oooh) each one more terrifying than the last. Bah!

Sob at the bedside of a tiny, malnourished child riven with rickets. Bah!

In their inimitable style, the team that brought you Great Expectations, The Odyssey, Canterbury Tales and Dracula: the Vampyr will now take you on a grim (sort of) journey through the dark, dismal streets of Victorian London.

This is Dickens’ original words with added silliness. Silliness? Bah!

Celebrate the festive season with a mesmerising one-man performance of Charles Dickens’ timeless, transformative story: A Christmas Carol. Bah!

Now with even more Humbug!

Running time: 70 mins (approximately)

Directed by Simon Harvey, Performed by David Mynne, Script by Simon Harvey and David Mynne, Original adaptation by Andrew McPherson

“A Christmas Carol was beautiful: apparently simple theatre with just one actor but you go home remembering a cast of dozens! He is a genius. “Richard Wolfenden-Brown: Director The Plough Arts Centre
