Nick Mohammed’s festive comedy A Christmas Carol (ish) plays the West End this winter, bringing a fresh and hilarious twist to the holiday season.

Written by and starring double Emmy-nominated actor Nick Mohammed, A Christmas Carol (ish) reimagines Charles Dickens’ classic tale with a comedic spin – this time, Santa Claus has cancelled Christmas! Will three ghostly visits be enough to help him rediscover his festive spirit?

Join Taskmaster and Ted Lasso star Nick Mohammed in the guise of his critically acclaimed alter-ego Mr. Swallow for an all-singing, all-dancing comedy retelling of Dickens’ festive classic. A stellar cast include Martha Howe-Douglas (Ghosts, Horrible Histories), Kieran Hodgson (Two Doors Down) and David Elms (Borderline).

Book your tickets now for an unforgettable festive theatrical treat.

A Christmas Carol (ish) runs from 16 November 2024 to 31 December 2024 at @sohoplace theatre London.

This Christmas, there’s a new carol in town!

When Santa cancels Christmas on Christmas Eve, he’s visited by three ghosts who must convince him to see the error of his ways and rediscover the magic of Christmas. But with mere hours to go, and only one working reindeer, how will he deliver everything on time?!

Jangle those jingles, devour those Christingles, it’s time for some Christmas chaos!
