Event information

Grab yourself a mulled wine and settle into your seat for the Living Theatre’s reading of a Christmas Carol - but don’t get too comfortable, expect characters to leap from the page and Dickens to dance before your eyes as our actors contend to tell our favourite Christmas story; seamlessly moving from your trusted narrator to the most fiendish of Dickens creations.

Book in hand, our actors will take you through the laughter, lows and straight to the heart of Dickens’ most famous tale.

This reading is created for all the family, relishing the
words for the most faithful Dickens’ fan to captivating the imaginations of our youngest audience.
