We have taken Charles Dickens' perennial Christmas favourite and brought it to life on stage with our fast-paced and energetic production that sees Tilly, a "real life Victorian urchin", and modern boy Jake ("I know the true meaning of Christmas, thank you very much!") helping Mr Dickens himself to tell the story.
Our experience of producing entertaining shows for children comes to the fore in this slick production that keeps the audience engaged and entertained from start to finish.
There's audience interaction, classic Dickensian language and plenty of silliness to ensure that everyone in the family will leave the theatre happy.
"A Christmas Carol" is perfect for family audiences and school groups from 4 years and upwards.

"Wow wow wow - exceptional!
What a truly fabulous cast. The story was excellent, all three actors were outstanding and what a superb performance.
Happy Christmas you wonderful people.
Laughter is everything and you gave it to us in bucketfuls."
"Thank you Hobgoblin Theatre Company, and especially the talented and professional actors.
'A Christmas Carol' was the perfect way to start December and the Christmas period.
Great acting, storyline adapted for primary age and the right amount of silliness to seriousness.
The children and adults loved it. See you next Christmas, hopefully!"


If you are looking for the perfect way for a family audience to get in the festive mood then this is it! Our version of "A Christmas Carol" is fresh, original and inventive - but most of all it's lots and lots of fun!
