Critic reviews
Thoroughly entertaining, fun, ebullient, emotionally cathartic and uplifting, A Christmas Carol is a spectacular, joyful show
It's hard to imagine a more pertinent Christmas tale, delivered with greater atmosphere, theatricality and emotional heft
Stephen Tompkinson takes over the role of Scrooge as the Old Vic’s joyous OTT Dickens take returns
Not even Scrooge himself could dislike this
Jack Thorne and Matthew Warchus’ joyful, generous adaptation returns with Stephen Tompkinson as Scrooge
This nippy, largely faithful adaptation is so sumptuously staged that I feel a bit Scrooge-like for liking it rather than loving it
