The Pantomime

Adapted from Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol
By Trevor Wakefield

The Cratchit Children - (c) Graham Fawley

Charles Dickens timeless moral classic is effortlessly reworked into a traditional pantomine. Blending Bob Cratchit and the spirit of
Christmas Past into a marvellously entertaining work that retains the best of A Christmas Carol and merges it with all
our childhood memories of what a pantomine ought to be.

Trevor Wakefield and The Stannington Players make this adaptation work like few others.
