A Christmas Carol Comedy

Part Christmas Carol, part pantomime, a twist of 39 Steps and a whole lot of fun nonsense; this 2 Man show of A CHRISTMAS CAROL COMEDY will be a new telling even if you have seen the movies 50 times...

To save his beloved holiday from the Puritans who sought to squash it, Charles Dickens wrote a silly Christmas ghost story to resurrect the Ghost of Christmases Past. Now, in an age when Christmas shopping begins in September and the season is more full of stress and spending than it is of glad tidings, A CHRISTMAS CAROL COMEDY is sure to resuscitate your good humour and goodwill to all men but especially towards the two actors on stage tackling all of Dickens beloved characters! Mixing shades of Monty Python with the Shades of Past, Present and Future, this comedy is just the ticket for anyone aged 5 to 95 looking for a bit of festive fun.
