A Christmas Carol

2012 - 2015

Overview

The National Theatre of Scotland’s version of Charles Dickens’ classic fable is an exquisite take on one of our most famous winter tales.

Only 90 audience members per show join Ebenezer Scrooge in his Victorian counting house and sit in creepy close-up as this most famous of misers is visited by three ghosts during his night of soul-searching.

Other-worldly puppets, top-rank Scottish actors and some of the most beautiful words ever written in the English language combine to make this intimate Christmas Carol heart-rending and heart-warming in equal measure.
