A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens
26th October 2012
Critically acclaimed outdoor theatre company The Pantaloons make their debut in the beautiful surroundings of Whirlow Hall Farm Trust with their hilarious, fast-paced adaptation of Dickens's festive favourite A Christmas Carol.
With a cast of just four actors, this production is sure to put a smile on even the glummest face (even Scrooge's), using audience interaction, puppetry, slapstick, original music and traditional carols. The performance is very faithful to the book with an additional framing narrative of a travelling Victorian 'penny circus'. There are brief interludes where the actors present some of their other acts - a magician, the bearded lady, etc Everyone will love the interaction, the fun nature and the lively music and it really will be something a little different this Christmas. The event will take place in the barn at Whirlow Hall Farm on Wednesday 19th December so remember to wrap up warm! Hot chocolate and mulled wine will be available on the night to create a cosy atmosphere. Doors open at 5pm with the performance running from 5.30pm to 6.30pm, Tickets £8 Adults, £5 Children.
