Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol at Gil Cates Theater at the Geffen Playhouse

Why see Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol?

Starring Jefferson Mays

Broadway's critically acclaimed holiday production! The yuletide classic arrives at the Geffen in a brand new adaptation by Tony winner Jefferson Mays (Oslo, A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder). This new take is based on the version of A Christmas Carol that Dickens himself used to perform on his live reading tours. Mays will be doing a master class of a performance in playing over 50 roles in this inspiring performance.

As everyone knows, Christmas Carol follows the story of the miserly business man Ebenezer Scrooge, who hates the holiday season and makes it a misery for his employee Bob Cratchet. However, Scrooge's life is turned around by the visit of three spirits, the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future, who show him the real meaning of the holiday season.

For my first visit to NYC for fourteen years and my nephew's first visit ever, I wanted a Brodway show with zing and panache. Kind Hearts and Coronets has long been one of my favourite films so A Gentleman's Guide sounded ideal. It exceeded my already high expectations and we both - my nephew is not really a theatregoer - hugely enjoyed the show. The theatre is a gem (even if the seating is somewhat cramped), the staff delightful and the performers - particularly Jefferson Mays - outstanding. I wept with laughter and consider myself fortunate to have come across this exceptionally entertaining show. I just hope that it transfers - with cast intact - to London where, if there's any justice, it would run forever. ... Read more
