A Christmas Carol at the Old Vic is the ultimate festive show everyone should see
Briefly

Produced by Matthew Warchus and adapted by Jack Thorne, this show tells the story written by Charles Dickens in 1844 of love, redemption and human compassion that still resonates with modern day audiences.
Scrooge is played by Life on Mars star John Simm, who gives a hearty performance and really brought the character to life on stage with a smattering of humour that I really enjoyed.
With a minimalist set with mainly a few props used by the actors, the show leaves it up to the audience's own imagination to envisage Scrooge's apartments and the dark streets of Victorian London.
Georgina Sadler's performance as Little Fan was both sweet and caring, whilst bringing a kind of strength to her character I hadn't seen done before.
