Details

On a cold Christmas Eve, four spirits conspire to show Ebenezer Scrooge the error of his ways. His old business partner, Jacob Marley has returned from the dead to offer him a second chance, if he can change his mean and miserly behaviour. Nowhere are the effects of poverty more keenly felt than in the Cratchit family, especially by their youngest son, Tiny Tim. As Scrooge's inspirational journey shows him both the hardship and love of those around him, he is reminded of his own powers of charity and kindness. Charles Dickens' ever popular story of Scrooge and his encounters with the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future translates superbly in a performance encouraging the whole audience to participate. Children from the audience will play the Carol Singers, the Cratchit Children and other parts. Whilst the rest of the audience will be taught the songs and encouraged to join in. A talented cast and wonderful music by Robert Hyman feature in another excellent production by Millfield regulars Image Theatre Company.
