“Joe Murphy’s triumphant Dickens redo… Brims with an irresistible festive charm, and looks absolutely gorgeous.” ☆☆☆☆ The Guardian
Let us transport you to the streets of Victorian Cardiff this Christmas for a festive adventure unlike any other. Our laughter-stuffed, song-filled, tear-jerking, and utterly life-enhancing re-telling of A Christmas Carol, first seen in 2021, returns this Christmas by popular demand. A Christmas Carol promises exceptional festive entertainment for everyone aged 7+.
Cardiff, 1843. Money is all Scrooge has. She has lots of it. It’s all she has ever had, but it’s never made her happy. But on Christmas Eve, she will meet three ghosts who will teach her the most important lesson of all. By Christmas morning, she will have learned how to live for the first time.
Gary Owen’s adaptation of this classic story is brought to life with magical puppets, a spectacular set, and dazzling costumes. Joe Murphy’s uplifting and acclaimed production is performed by a sensational actor-musician-led cast. The cast includes Sherman at Christmas favourites: Hannah McPake, reprising her much-loved performance as Ebbie Scrooge; Keiron Self, making his tenth appearance in a Sherman Christmas show; and Owen Alun, who delighted audiences last year as Tinkerbell in Peter Pan.
Experience the full joy of Christmas at the Sherman.
