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. With the help of a large pop-up book, lots of humbugs and snow, this classic story is brought to life in a comical one man show. The audience is taken back to Victorian England using mime, voice and a couple of suitcases loaded full of ghosts. Children are invited to play some of the parts in the story. Suitable for 5-11 years. Lasts approx. 45 mins. An adult must accompany all children.
