Especially adapted for the stage by award-winning writer Laura Turner, A Christmas Carol will tour theatres and stately homes throughout the 2016 Christmas season.

On Christmas Eve, the most magical night of the year, the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is whisked away on a terrifying journey through the past and into the future, accompanied by three fearsome ghosts determined to make him realise the true meaning of Christmas.

Charles Dickens’ classic ghost story is brought alive in this most traditional of productions, complete with beautiful period costume, song and dance.

Chapterhouse first toured A Christmas Carol over back to back years in 2010 and 2011.
