A Christmas Carol
1 December - 4 December
Sweet and Sour Productions presents A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, adapted and directed by Candice Gourlay Moore.
It is Christmas Eve and Ebenezer Scrooge is mean to everyone. He will not donate money to help the poor, he cuts the wages of his loyal Clerk, Bob Cratchit, and he refuses to spend Christmas with his niece, Winnifred. He even despises the carol singers in the London streets! He is visited by the ghost of his deceased business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns that if he does not change his ways he will be doomed to walk the earth forever. He also tells him he will be visited by three ghosts. The Ghost of Christmas Past, The Ghost of Christmas Present and The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come. With a mixture of songs, humour and insight, the ghosts show Scrooge how his behaviour has affected those around him. By the end, he is relieved to discover there is still time for him to change and we see him transformed into a generous and kind-hearted human being. He rediscovers the joy of friends, family and Christmas!
