BETH Flintoff’s adaptation of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol, with its nod to the Huntley and Palmers biscuit factory and other Reading landmarks, returns to Reading Rep Theatre in King’s Road from next Friday until January 3.
Factory boss Ebenezer Scrooge is bitter and set in his ways, until he receives visitations from the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come.
Will he see the light, open his heart and warm to the festivities?
George Eggay will play Scrooge, with Sam Amestoy, Mark Desebrock, Orla O’Sullivan, Charlotte Warner multi-roleing and Eli Murphy, Emily MacLellan and Ned Woollatt as Tiny Tim.
Tickets cost from £5 to £34. The show has a duration of two hours and some scenes may be unsettling for very young children.
