Goblin’s musical take on A Christmas Carol in a brand new version at Theatre by the Lake
It’s midnight on Christmas Eve, join us for a haunted Carol service as a spooky choir and the spirits of Christmas race to save the soul of Ebenezer Scrooge. Scrooge is a hard-nosed Victorian businessman from Keswick who has made his fortune in the big city, but is without a song in his heart. Scrooge hates Christmas and everything about it, but things are about to change when his business partner Jacob Marley returns from the grave…
Told in Theatre by the Lake’s signature magical Christmas style, and brought to you by Goblin this vibrant new adaptation is great fun for all the family with original songs and music performed live by a cast of talented actor-musicians.
