“Marley was dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that.”
– Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol
It’s Christmas Eve in the city, a rich man sits alone in his gilded tower and awaits the ghosts of his past and his future.
In Scrooge’s office, high in a glass tower, somewhere in the City of London, the spirits are gathering in the darkening gloom to take this selfish, greedy man on a journey to his own salvation – but will he heed their lesson? He has just one night to change his ways or face a terrible fate….
The puppetry is incredible and it was fascinating
- North Hants Mum
