DICKENS' A CHRISTMAS CAROL
By Charles Dickens
Adapted and directed for the stage by Jeremy Webb

Now featuring RHYS BEVAN-JOHN

The classic holiday show brought lovingly to life.

Whether read aloud with family and friends or in solitude on a chill winter evening to savour the story, Dickens’ A Christmas Carol is a very special holiday experience.

Take a break from the Holiday rush and settle in for this dramatic telling of this holiday classic. Often Hilarious, sometimes spooky; Dickens’ A Christmas Carol has been recreated for the whole family.

Tried and tested, Webb’s Christmas Carol has met with fantastic critical and box office success!

Every Christmas it’s the story that will warm our hearts. Ebenezer Scrooge, Tiny Tim, Bob Cratchit, and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future will remind us with laughter and tears that the true Christmas spirit comes from giving.

Bevan-John plays all twenty roles in the production, from the Ghost of Christmas Past to Tiny Tim. It has to be seen to be believed! Charles Dickens himself would perform the piece in performances such as this one.

“Every idiot who goes about with ‘Merry Christmas’ on his lips should be boiled with his own pudding and buried with a stake of holly through his heart,” says Scrooge.

Even if you agree with Ebeneezer, this popular production of Dickens’ favourite will get you in a Yuletide mood.

Rhys is returning to the show he first worked on as a puppeteer in 2003. Over the past 11 years, Rhys has toured with A Christmas Carol a number of times, supporting the show’s original actor, Jeremy Webb. “He’s the perfect choice for the role,” says Webb. “Not only is he talented, funny and a great actor, but he’s familiar with the job and the show."

Rhys took over the role last year, to great acclaim.

Webb retains links with the touring production, having re-directed it in 2015 and producing it through Eastern Front Theatre. “It’s a great opportunity to revisit the material and try some new stuff!” Webb explains. “All the traditional moments are there, but Rhys brings his own style to the show too… Each year it will just get bigger and better.”
