Bah Humbug! It’s Christmas! Well, if you’re ever tempted to utter those words, just remember what happened to the miserly misery Ebenezer Scrooge. Set on Christmas Eve, the grumpy, sour-faced Scrooge has quite a fright when the ghost of his dead business partner Jacob Marley appears before him, with a chain-rattled warning that Ebenezer must change his stingy ways. And he’s not the only spectre to remind this penny-pinching person of the spirit of Christmas… Perfectly capturing the heart and soul (literally) of this seasonal time, A Christmas Carol is a magical production that’ll bring a warm glow to audiences of all ages.Company Llanelli Musical Players.
