Solihull Arts Complex

Celebrating their 11th year delighting UK audiences with this unique and highly acclaimed production, Dickens Theatre Company arrive at The Core Theatre.

Dickens Theatre Company present A Christmas Carol as part of their REVISION ON TOUR programme, staging exciting theatre adaptations of classic English GCSE texts for both students and lovers of literature alike.

With the rest of the acting cast stuck on a train, the great Charles Dickens himself, aided by his faithful tour manager, George Dolby, takes on the daunting challenge of portraying not just Ebenezer Scrooge, but over 30 other characters in this classic festive tale! Surely it can’t be done?

School group rates available - please email thecoretheatre@solihull.gov.uk

All 10.30am & 1pm performances also include the option to stay for a free 20-minute post-show Q&A with the cast, a popular addition for school groups, giving students the chance to ask questions, deepen their understanding of the text and explore the production further.
