“Every idiot who goes about with Merry Christmas on his lips should be boiled with his own pudding and buried with a stake of holly through his heart!”
Scrooge doesn’t like Christmas. In fact he thinks it’s a waste of time and doesn’t mind saying so. Not only that, he’s stingy, greedy, cold-hearted and downright unpleasant! But, when three supernatural uninvited guests make an appearance, a remarkable transformation begins to occur...
Proper Job's adaptation of the Dickens' classic has been acclaimed for its innovative staging and special effects as well as exemplary performances by both professional and young community actors.
Scrooge - A Christmas Carol
Proper Job's unique and song-filled adaptation of Scrooge: a Christmas Carol was first performed at Darwen Library Theatre in December 2008 to over 3,000 audience members and garnered an overwhelmingly positive critical response. It then enjoyed another successful run hosted by The Square Chapel, Halifax in 2010.
2011 saw the production move to The Met in Bury, where we were once again capably supported by a cast of talented young people from the locality.
