- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 19 Dec, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Sat, 19 Dec, 2026 at 09:15 pm (+00:00)
- **Event Description**: A sparse stage. A single performer. And Victorian London springs to life.

Returning to The Swan in Southwold after last year's sold-out shows, this is ‘A Christmas Carol’ as Charles Dickens performed it himself, drawn directly from his original reading script. Through voice, presence and the power of Dickens’ unaltered words, a whole world unfolds - Scrooge’s chilly office, Fezziwig’s joyous party, the warmth of the Cratchit family, and the haunting visitation of the spirits. The simplicity becomes the magic: no adaptation, no modern reinterpretation — just the story as it thrilled audiences 183 years ago, brought vividly to life.

Step into the magic of Christmas as Mat Jones returns with his acclaimed one-man performance of Charles Dickens’ beloved festive classic.
