One Christmas Carol at Beddington Theatre Arts Centre

One Christmas Carol, staring Natascha Girgis - one actor portrays over 35 distinct characters! This one-person tour de force is an intimate and spirited evening of theatre that everyone in the family will love! Charles Dickens’ famous story about selfishness and selflessness is realized in its bare essence, forgoing the usual opulence of the holidays and focusing on what is of utmost importance during the season. Dickens’ colourful characters are all present— Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim, Fezziwig, Belle, the Ghosts of Christmases Past, Present, and Future— springing to new life with a treasure trove of moral lessons for one and all.

"The experience of the pandemic has taught us all the necessity of living in the past, the present, and the future. This production is... the perfect encapsulation of theatre's healing and catharsis. How can anyone leave this show and not feel merry and light? Live theatre is back, and in the words of Tiny Tim, god bless us everyone." – Entertainment Weekly
