About the show

It’s Christmas Eve in Victorian England and Ebenezer Scrooge is as grumpy as ever – no twinkling lights, no festive cheer, just pure bah-humbug!

Adapted for the stage by Deborah McAndrew, directed by Amy Leach (Mr Snow, Animal Farm, Macbeth), and with set & costume design by Hayley Grindle, A Christmas Carol promises a heart-warming and joyful experience for all.

Join us for festive magic and an unforgettable journey of redemption and cheer.
