A CHRISTMAS CAROL
First devised and performed in 2017, A Christmas Carol was David’s second piece of work by Charles Dickens. The show has toured nationally, every December since, and had a highly successful run in Los Angeles, December 2019.Joy to all mankind? Bah! Spend an evening with Ebenezer Scrooge: a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, clutching covetous old miser. Bah!
Watch horrified as he is haunted by four unearthly ghosts (wooo-ooooooh) each one more terrifying than the last. Bah! Sob at the bedside of a tiny, malnourished child riven with rickets. Bah!
Witness a grim journey through the dark, dirty, dismal streets of Victorian London. This is Dickens’ original words with added silliness. Silliness? Bah!
Celebrate the festive season with a mesmerising one-man performance of Charles Dickens’ timeless, transformative story: A Christmas Carol. Bah! Now with even more Humbug!

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.
