Storyline
Cratchit is a twist on the Christmas classic, ‘A Christmas Carol,’ by Charles Dickens. It follows Bob Cratchit, who with his family, visits his employer Ebenezer Scrooge on Christmas Eve. This tale travels through a cold, bitter night in London where Bob Cratchit goes on his own time-bending adventure through the Christmas future, all the while Scrooge is haunted by Christmas past, present, and future.
Filled with twists and suspense, this show is a re-imagined version of A Christmas Carol. After its screening at the Old Red Lion Theatre last year, Cratchit will now have its live premiere at the Park Theatre.

Park Theatre
A community theatre, Park Theatre was founded in 2013 by Jez Bond and Melli Bond. It opened after six years of searching for the perfect location in London, finally settling near Finsbury Park Station. Several luminaries such as Ian McKellen, Alan Rickman, along with the press and local residents helped raise funds to convert an old concrete building into this beautifully designed theatre. There are many productions currently running at this theatre, including Abigail’s Party, Cratchit, Five Little Christmas Monkeys, Little Women The Musical, and more.
