TUE 29 OCT - SAT 2 NOV
Northern Ballet's
A Christmas Carol
MAIN AUDITORIUM
Unassailable magic, and the heart-strings are truly plucked. THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
The much-loved dance classic returns.
Ebenezer Scrooge. A squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, covetous old sinner. One magical night. Three terrifying ghosts. A perfect tale for Christmas.
Christmas comes early this year as Northern Ballet’s heartwarming and hughely popular adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic tale returns to the stage.
Colourful sets and costumes by Olivier Award winning Lez Brotherston (Northern Ballet's Romeo & Juliet, Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty) conjure up a traditional Victorian Christmas, while Carl Davis' festive score blends classical music with traditional Christmas Carols, played live by Northern Ballet Sinfonia.
An audience favourite for more than 20 years, A Christmas Carol is guaranteed to get your festive season off to a magical start.
