A Christmas Carol

£4

Under 7s

With the help of a large pop up book and lots of humbugs, this very entertaining version of the Dickens’ classic tale takes the audience back to Victorian England using participation, slapstick comedy and a couple of suitcases loaded full of ghosts!

An old Dickensian narrator arrives to tell us the news, fresh from London town about the story he has heard of Scrooge.

He opens his Big Book but as he does he starts transforming into the different characters! Watch as he turns into a grumpy Scrooge, a very goofy Marley and the Three Ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Future. A great show for all the family to enjoy.

Suitable for under 7s and their families.

• Wednesday 21 December, 10 – 10.45am
