"Times is 'ard…Spare a copper for the poor" Scrooge, London's most notorious miser is having none of it, a man so mean he begrudges his only staff member Bob Cratchit a day off, even at Christmas.

On the eve before Christmas everything changes when he receives a visit from Jacob Marley, his very ex dead business partner. Marley warns Scrooge that he should expect three visitations from three Christmas Spirits. As Scrooge's past, present and future comes to haunt him, will he change or merely cry Humbug?

The world of Victorian London is brought vividly to life in an atmospheric retelling of Charles Dickens' most famous novella, featuring a fusion of original music, puppetry, shadow play and Spike Theatre's trademark bold storytelling, expect laughs and plenty of scares!

A Christmas Carol will definitely be for adults and brave children! Recommended for ages 12+…Be warned! The show will play the Lantern Theatre, Liverpool, 1st – 2nd (Previews) and 3rd – 10th December at 7:30pm (5pm on Sundays).
