A musical re-imagining of the tale of Scrooge, Cratchit, and the magic of the holidays. Bah humbug! 

 

Much mistletoeing, hearts a-glowing, family and spooky spirits gathered near, it’s the most wonderful time of the year! Join Scrooge and the Cratchit family for a holiday musical spectacular with the story and carols that you grew up on – now in a new Canadian adaptation set in the nostalgia of a 1940s department store a little like Macy's, a little like Kingsmill’s, and a lot like memories of sitting on Santa’s knee.  

This musical retelling of A Christmas Carol features performances straight from the holiday songbook, including seasonal favourites “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”, “Walking in a Winter Wonderland”, “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas”, and more. Marvel as the holiday season comes to life with shoppers busily checking their lists and staff holiday parties that whirl and twirl the night away with stunning choreography and a live band on stage. 

“I love this show. It’s heartwarming, it’s nostalgic, it’s the holidays. It calls on us to do good in the world. And it’s a Canadian adaptation by the incredible David van Belle. I was part of its development in Edmonton and now I get to direct it in its second iteration in a big, beautiful, London-made holiday musical production.” - Rachel Peake, Artistic Director

Relaxed Performance

Relaxed Performances are specifically designed to welcome patrons who will benefit from a less restricted audience environment. They differ from other performances by allowing patrons to leave and re-enter throughout the show, reducing sensory elements such as light and sound, and eliminating startling effects such as strobe and fog. Babes in arms are welcome at Relaxed Performances.
