This is a unique opportunity to experience one of Charles Dickens' most celebrated works in the Banqueting Hall of Knebworth House - a room Charles Dickens once performed in.

Grab yourself a mulled wine and settle into your seat for the Living Theatre’s reading of A Christmas Carol - but don’t get too comfortable, expect characters to leap from the page and Dickens to dance before your eyes as our two actors contend to tell our favourite Christmas story. Seamlessly moving from your trusted narrator to the most fiendish of Dickens creations.
