Matthew Warchus’ smash hit production of Charles Dickens’s immortal classic A Christmas Carol in London is a true holiday staple. This joyous adaptation for the stage was created by Jack Thorne who wrote Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and Netflix's global hit Adolescence.
The adaptation was originally crafted for The Old Vic in London, debuting during the Christmas season of 2017, and it has continued to make a return each year because of its immense popularity. Additionally, it has graced the Broadway stage, securing 5 Tony Awards, embarked on a tour across the United States, and entertained audiences in Melbourne. Due to its widespread appeal, A Christmas Carol tickets are in high demand, so book yours as soon as possible.
