PREPARE to be visited by the ghosts of Christmases past, present and future this winter as a much loved story returns to the theatre in Bordon.
Join the Proteus Theatre Company as they bring their fast-paced, funny and highly physical contemporary adaptation of Dickens’ best-loved story, A Christmas Carol, to the stage.
It’s Christmas Eve in the city, a rich man sits alone in his gilded tower and awaits the ghosts of his past and his future.
In Scrooge’s office, somewhere in the City of London, the spirits are gathering in the darkening gloom to take this selfish, greedy man on a journey to his own salvation – but will he heed their lesson?
A story of redemption and enlightenment, A Christmas Carol has much to say to audiences about our society, and the responsibilities we owe to others.
The production includes a cast of familiar Proteus faces: Danny Charles – Little Mermaid, Arabian Nights – Paul Huntley-Thomas – The Secret Garden, Rapunzel – and Ashley Christmas – Becoming Hattie, Little Red and the Wolves – plus puppets from acclaimed puppet maker Nick Ash, of Scratch Built Productions, responsible for Polka, The Globe and Little Angel.
The show comes to the Phoenix Theatre and Arts Centre in Bordon this Saturday and Froxfield Village Hall on Sunday. Visit www.phoenixarts.co.uk for ticket information.
