First look: Beth Flintoff’s adaptation of A Christmas Carol at Reading Rep
Production photos have been released for A Christmas Carol at Reading Rep this festive season.
As part of the venue’s tenth anniversary season Beth Flintoff’s adaptation returns to the venue from 30 November – 31 December 2022.
The production, which is co-directed by Chris Cuming and Reading Rep’s Founding Artistic Director Paul Stacey, relocates the Charles Dickens’ seminal story to Reading.
Making up the cast are Jeremy Drakes as Scrooge, Charlie Warner as Bobbie Cratchit, Elijah Ferreira as Fred, Rick Romero as Hopkins and Nathalie Codsi as Belle. Alina Kharina and Frankie Maddicks, Savannah-Rose Mattingley share the role of Tiny Tim.
The Christmas spirit is plentiful. It’s found its way everywhere except Huntley and Palmer’s Biscuit Factory, where Scrooge reigns terror amongst his employees. Will a visit from a familiar ghost or two help bring the sparkle back into Scrooge’s Christmas? Your favourite characters are back, bringing festive wonder to the cobbled streets of Reading.
The production has set design by Anna Lewis (Anna Bella Eema – Off West End Award Nominaton), sound design by Joe Dines (Tom Fool), lighting design by Simeon Miller (Project Dictator) and costume supervision by Jo Lewis (Jekyll & Hyde).
