NS Archive 2018: A Christmas Carol

Sat 1 Dec 2018 – Sat 5 Jan 2019

Charles Dicken’s classic story of ghosts, greed and goodwill is given boisterous new life in this thrilling production of A Christmas Carol from the same team that brought you James and the Giant Peace and Alice in Wonderland. 

Ding, dong, ding, dong, the bells are ringing and the clock is ticking because Scrooge is coming to town- and he’s meaner and greedier than ever. Bah Humbug! Can some infectious songs and a wild ride through the uncertain landscapes of Christmas past, present and future help him to discover the true meaning of Christmas? 

Northern Stage’s A Christmas Carol is the story you know and love (complete with all the trimmings) and will warm the hearts of the whole family.
