Dickens’ A Christmas Carol with Olivier Award-winner Guy Masterson

Theatre Tours International in association with Maverick Theatre Company presents

A CHRISTMAS CAROL

Performed by Guy Masterson
Adapted & Directed by Nick Hennegan

From the text by Charles Dickens
Original Music by Robb Williams

DICKENS’ MYSTICAL CHRISTMAS FABLE BROUGHT TO LIFE – A PERFECT CHRISTMAS TREAT!

Olivier Award winner, Guy Masterson, veteran of many smash hit solo works such as Under Milk Wood, Animal Farm and Shylock, now brings us Dickens’ classic festive fable. Famed for bringing multiple characters to vivid life, Masterson recreates Scrooge, Marley, the Fezziwigs, Tiny Tim et al in an enchanting, performance that will dazzle and linger long in the memory. Guaranteed to get you into the Christmas Spirit – in many more ways than one!

“Masterson’s production is an understated warning and a celebration of the hope for human kind. A Christmas Carol for our time.” (Public Review – 27/11/17))

Just when you thought you’d seen enough Christmas Carols to guide you to your grave, along comes one of the best yet! (BBC Radio 01/12/17)

“Quite simply spellbinding! (ReviewSphere – 06/08/18)

Theatre: Tapas, Treats & Encore Performance VANISHING POINT

Spend your Saturday night with us! We’ll start out with tapas, treats, and music in the Commons Cafe at 6 pm, and then move into the main theatre at 7 pm for an encore performance of Vanishing Point, A New Musical. Playwright Rob Hartmann described the production as an “outpouring of love on stage.” The comedy-fantasy centers around the lives of Aviatrix Amelia Earhart, evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson and author Agatha Christie who each vanished mysteriously: Agatha disappeared for eleven days; Aimee disappeared for three weeks, and of course Amelia vanished completely. The show, food, and drinks are included in the ticket price of $20 for adults and $10 for kids/teens; all proceeds benefit theatre programs.
