A Dickens seasonal favourite comes to a Bradford city centre location this December.
The Loading Bay venue is staging an interpretation of the Charles Dickens seasonal classic by The Book of Darkness & Light Theatre Company on December 3.
Adam Z.
Robinson handles both adaptation and performance duties, emphasising the darker, more macabre elements of the festive narrative in an unfamiliar presentation of the Dickens work.
The production has received descriptions of being alternatively unsettling, exhilarating and touching.
The performance incorporates atmospheric narration, spectral recorded voices and an enveloping audio environment.
Audiences are guided through the counting house of a miser, the modest home of a clerk’s family and the ominous grave of a notorious skinflint.
Robinson switches between twenty-eight distinct roles throughout the production.
The Loading Bay facility occupies a converted storage structure on Duke Street as part of Bradford’s tenure as City of Culture.
Entry prices commence at twelve pounds, with additional details available at the provided online event listing.
