The (merry) Christmas Carol!

Bah! Humbug!

The Travelling Players return with their suitcases bursting with merriment, mayhem and humbug! They tell the haunting tale of a mean and miserly old man; the tight-fisted curmudgeon, Ebenezer Scrooge!

Between dusk and dawn Scrooge is visited by the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future! Will he mend his ways? Will he become a new man? Will he greet themorning with a … Merry Christmas Everyone?

Through their unique brand of quirky storytelling, live action, music, a puppet or two, a host of Gothic surprises, some ghostly flights of fancy and a clanking of chains, the Travelling Players bring this Yuletide classic to life.

Join us for this heartfelt hug of a tale! After all, as Dickens said: “There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour.”

A sociable event to send you home warm and happy!

Presented by Forest Forge, Bumblefly Theatre and Mischievous Theatre
