A Christmas Carol Community Christmas Show 10th – 15th December Convert the ‘Scrooge’ in your life and immerse yourself in this Dickens’s much-loved Christmas classic. Ebenezer Scrooge is the world’s most notorious miser, who even begrudges his staff a day off at Christmas until he’s confronted by the Spirits of Christmas – Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Future – who use magic to show him the miserable consequences of his meanness. Then even Scrooge has to relent!

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without Dickens’ timeless and heart-warming tale.
