Feeling a bit Scrooge-like this holiday season? Don’t despair! The Llanymynech Amateur Dramatic Society (LADS) is here to melt away your cynicism with a heartwarming production of Charles Dickens’ classic tale, A Christmas Carol.
This chilling yet ultimately uplifting story follows Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly businessman whose outlook on Christmas can be summed up as: “What’s Christmas time to you but a time for paying bills without money; a time for finding yourself a year older and not an hour richer?”
Adapted for the stage by Alison Utting, the LADS production promises to stay true to the spirit of Dickens’ original “ghost story of Christmas.”
Expect vivid descriptions brought to life, iconic characters you know and love, and a captivating blend of darkness and light, bitterness and hope.
Live music and colorful costumes will further enhance the experience, transporting audiences to a bygone era filled with festive cheer – and a few well-placed scares!
Warning: ghosts included (and they might be a little spooky!)
