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)

"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."What the audience said:Just brilliant! We loved The Odyssey and this was even better. Thank you!
