Do you love reading and going to the theatre?
Do you want to dig in deep to the original story before seeing its adaptation? This collaborative book club from Blackwell’s and Capital Theatres is just the thing to take you from page to stage and ignite some fascinating conversations.
Our first book club of the Spring season is Charles Dickens’ classic A Christmas Carol which has been humorously re-staged by Mischief in their production Christmas Carol Goes Wrong.
To bitter, miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, Christmas is just another day. But all that changes when the ghost of his long-dead business partner appears, warning Scrooge to change his ways before it’s too late.
