A Christmas Carol

- Proteus Theatre Company, Charles Dickens
Proteus Theatre Company give us an updated version of Dicken’s much-loved seasonal fable.
It’s Christmas Eve in the city. A rich man sits alone in his gilded tower and awaits the ghosts of his past and his future.
In Scrooge’s office, high in a glass tower, somewhere in the City of London, the spirits are gathering in the darkening gloom to take this selfish, greedy man on a journey to his own salvation: but will he heed their lesson? He has just one night to change his ways or face a terrible fate….
“Award winning Proteus bring Dickens’ best loved story right up to date in this fast, funny, highly physical and contemporary adaptation. A story of redemption and enlightenment, A Christmas Carol has much to say to audiences about our society, and the responsibilities we owe to others through our actions.”
Also features puppets from acclaimed puppet maker Nick Ash (Scratch Built Productions – Polka, The Globe, Little Angel).
For families with children aged 6+, running time approx. 85 minutes, plus interval.
Tue 12-Thur 14, 7.30pm. For more info, visit www.1532bristol.co.uk/whats-on-and-news/events/a-christmas-carol
