Step into the enchanting world of Charles Dickens' timeless classic, A Christmas Carol, joyously reimagined for the stage by the award-winning and much-beloved playwright, Marie Jones.
Join us at the Lyric Theatre for a heart warming journey through the streets of Victorian Belfast as we follow the journey of Ebenezer Scrooge.
Nobody hates Christmas more than the selfish miser Ebenezer Scrooge. But on a cold Christmas Eve, he’s taken on an extraordinary journey through time that presents him with an opportunity to face his past — and change the future — before time runs out.
Under Jones' masterful touch, this beloved, big-hearted tale is brought to life with wit, music and merriment, promising an unforgettable theatrical experience for audiences young and young-at-heart. From the chilling visits from the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come, to the jubilant spirit of redemption and goodwill, every moment on stage is filled with magic and wonder.
With an incredible ensemble cast using the pure magic of theatre to create the sounds, music, characters and settings of Victorian Belfast, A Christmas Carol will take you on an unforgettable journey, so add a little magic to your festive season with a visit to the Lyric.
Whether it's your very first Christmas show, or a Lyric family tradition, this wonderful live theatre experience will make magic memories for you and your loved ones.
