Event Information

Joy to all mankind? Bah!
Spend an evening in the company of a mean, tight-fisted, squeezing, grasping, clutching 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! Stagger through the dark, dirty, dismal streets of Victorian London. Bah!
This is Dickens’ original words with added silliness. Silliness? Bah! BAH!
Celebrate the festive season with a mesmerising one-man performance of Charles Dickens’ timeless, transformative story: A CHRISTMAS CAROL. Bah! Humbug!

Suitable for adults and older children (8yrs+)

Directed by Simon Harvey (BAFTA award winner)
Performed by David Mynne
Adapted by Andrew McPherson
Additional script by Simon Harvey and David Mynne

The show lasts 75 mins plus an interval.
It starts at 7.pm but come early at 6pm for festive refreshments (non-alco mulled wine and mince pies: donations only - to support church funds).

What a local Arts Centre said:
"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."
