A joyous celebration of the festive season, Antic Disposition’s much-loved adaptation of A Christmas Carol combines the ghostly tale of miser Ebenezer Scrooge with a score of original songs inspired by the carols of a traditional Victorian Christmas.

Performed in the spectacular Elizabethan setting of Middle Temple Hall in central London for seven sell-out seasons, Antic Disposition's A Christmas Carol has been seen by over 17,000 people and is firmly established as one of London’s most magical festive treats.
