The Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby

Left penniless after their father’s sudden death, the young Nickleby’s must venture to London and seek help from their Uncle Ralph. Ralph has no desire to help. His only intentions are to separate and exploit them.

So, their adventures begin.

In this new, large cast, action-packed adaptation, follow impetuous headstrong Nicholas, as he struggles to save his persecuted sister Kate, their inept mother and his tragic friend Smike, from the abusive exploitation of his ruthless uncle.

Journey from the idyll of pastoral Devon to the crush of London; from the brutal Dotheboys School in Yorkshire to the eccentric and comic world of a travelling theatrical company; from an oppressive London workshop to a sinister upper-class dinner party.

Full of wonderful Dickensian characters, an amazing story of comedy and tragedy, embracing themes of class, cruelty, compassion, exploitation, and love, from the master of storytelling, Charles Dickens.
