Marley was dead… to begin with. After the success of last year’s NIGHTMARES, The Book of Darkness & Light return with their ghostly adaption of this most beloved festive classic.
Join Ebenezer Scrooge on a supernatural journey into the past, present and yet-to-come. The chilling atmosphere of Victorian London is brought to life and the spirits of Christmas return from the dead – all through the spellbinding art of storytelling in this thrilling solo show.
Adapted and performed by Adam Z. Robinson in his inimitable style, this production of ‘A Christmas Carol’ teases out the gothic aspects, presenting Dickens’ remarkable story as you’ve never seen it before. This enthralling version is by turns hair-raising, thrilling and heartwarming.
Using a combination of gripping narration, eerie recorded voices and an immersive soundscape, the show transports audiences to the office of Scrooge and Marley, the humble Cratchit household and the fearful, final resting place of that most infamous miser.
It’s like gathering round a fireside and being invited into the world of this Christmas classic. With Robinson portraying 28 different characters in the show, this is an extraordinary experience not to be missed this Christmas.
“A hauntingly wonderful retelling of a classic tale.”
“Robinson’s delivery is captivation… he is an exceptional storyteller.”
