SCROOGE THE PANTOMIME

As Christmas approaches, Mr Scrooge is in anything but a festive mood. But this will be a Christmas he will never forget as he is visited by various eccentric ghosts who urge him to show some cheer! Meanwhile his housekeeper, Dame Dottie Dilber is busy trying to prepare dinner in spite of her daft son Jonny! It’s all a typical Christmas of rushing about buying food and singing carols – but at the heart of the show is a story of good triumphing over all that is nasty!

Will the Cratchits get their proper Christmas Dinner? Will Scrooge ever stop saying ‘Humbug’? Which will be the scariest Ghost? And where is Tiny Tim?

All these questions and many others will be answered in this wonderful entertainment for all the family!
