Book early to avoid disappointment as tickets are limited.

The performance

A classic tale by Charles Dickens, this well-known story follows Ebenezer Scrooge, a cruel, cold-hearted businessman who gets an opportunity to change his ways. Visited by four spirits, he’s shown how his life and the lives of those around him will end-up should he continue to live solely for financial gain.

The story connects characters’ attitudes toward food and toward Christmas, signifying the generosity and fellow-feeling the Christmas season invokes. Scrooge’s former employer Fezziwig provided plenty of food for his employees and other guests at his Christmas party. There will be mulled wine and mince pies on route!

This is a promenade performance, some inside and outside, so please wrap up warm and wear sensible footwear to walk around our beautiful site. There will be plenty of opportunities for resting throughout the performance and plenty of opportunities to get involved too!

Performance time is around 1 hour, but can change slightly due to the interactive nature of the piece.
