A Christmas Carol

David Mynne: Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
The end of the year is on the way and, once again, it’s time to dust off the candlesticks and get Ebenezer Scrooge out of mothballs. For the ninth year (Nine! How many years before it becomes a tradition?) David will perform his one-man adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
In the spirit of A Christmas Carol and Mr. Ebenezer Scrooge, as always, my proceeds from the show will be given to homeless charities and food banks in Cornwall.
So come ye all, take you on a grim (sort of) journey through the dark, dismal streets of Victorian London and celebrate the festive season with Charles Dickens’ timeless, transformative story. Bah! Humbug!
Dickens’ original words with added silliness. Silliness? Bah!
For adults and accompanied children 12+
Directed by Simon HarveyPerformed by David Mynne
"A Christmas Carol was beautiful - apparently simple theatre with just one actor, but you go home remembering a cast of dozens! He is a genius."
