A Christmas Carol didn’t just invent Christmas as we know it. It’s also scary, joyful, spooky, hilarious, furious, beautiful, and a triumphant declaration that even the hardest heart can melt.

Three outstanding actors – Simon Russell Beale, Eben Figueiredo and Lyndsey Marshal – come together to tell Charles Dickens’ story and play all the parts.

Devised by Nicolas Hytner, A Christmas Carol was previously seen at The Bridge in December 2020. This festive treat returns for a limited 4-week season from 6 December 2022 until 31 December 2022 at the Bridge Theatre.

Charles Dickens classic tale is brought to life by three acclaimed actors at the Bridge Theatre this Christmas.

Taken on a magical and transformational journey by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future, the cold-hearted Scrooge realises he must change his ways or he will  surely suffer an eternal misery like his old friend Jacob Marley.
