A Christmas Carol

By Charles Dickens
Adapted and directed by Chris Monks

'Bah! Humbug!'

Ebenezer Scrooge cares for nothing and nobody. His only love is money. Then, one Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by three ghostly spirits, and he begins a life changing journey of redemption.

Our specially adapted version of this classic and much-loved story will feature sixteen young performers drawn from across the Borough of Scarborough, working alongside a professional cast.

Dickens spent time in Malton, and based Scrooge's Counting House on a friend's offices in Chancery Lane. What if Scrooge grew up in Ryedale? Was the penny-pinching old miser a Yorkshire man after all?
