Dicken’s Classic
Will Delight Washington
A
Christmas Carol
Washington
Arts Centre
Thursday 10th
December 2015
A fun and unique
adaptation of Dickens’ classic ghost story comes to Arts Centre Washington this
Christmas Box Clever Theatre Company will be performing at Arts Centre
Washington with their new touring production, A Christmas Carol, on Thursday 10
December 2015.
Adapted by Box Clever’s
Artistic Director, Michael Wicherek, the company’s production interweaves the
traditional story with modern interpretation. A cast of three brings the
revolving stage set to life with puppets and music.
Crammed full of dramatic
scenes and characters, from Marley’s ghost to the saintly Tiny Tim and Ebenezer Scrooge himself, A Christmas
Carol depicts a truly British Christmas
filled with joy, eating too much, family reunions and goodwill.
The performance brings
together National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Compan director Iqbal Kane with
award winning set designer Rhys Jarman.
David Ajao rejoins the
Box Clever team to bring to life a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, Scrooge. The audience will join him
and the rest of the cast on the journey
that he is forced to make through his past, present and future, until laughter and goodness replace the ice in his
heart.
Matthew Blyth, Audience Development
Officer at Arts Centre Washington said: “We are delighted
that Box Clever are returning to the arts centre after their previous show,
Time for the Good Looking Boy was so well received. Their shows are always modern and relevant as
well as managing to be lively and exciting.
This classic Christmas story combined with live music and audience participation
promises to be really entertaining festive fun!”
