Event Details

A Recitation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol with Mulled Wine & Mince Pies

Join us for a cosy storytelling session of Charles Dickens’ classic Victorian tale, A Christmas Carol, whilst warming up for Christmas with spicy mulled wine or festive fruit punch with warm mince pies served during the interval – mmm!


What can I expect?

This special, Victorian-themed event is an absolute must for Dickens fans, as narrator, Finlay Tyson, brings the story of scrooge – with its touching, timeless message of the power of kindness (and the ugliness of greed & selfishness) – to life.
