A Christmas Carol at The Key Theatre
Hold onto your nightcaps, because this Christmas Lamphouse Theatre is returning live to the Key Theatre stage with a fun-filled one-man version of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
Presented in the Key Theatre studio from the 15th-24th December, with socially distanced seating, Lamphouse’s one-man show will see a single actor portray all the famous characters in A Christmas Carol, while playing, singing and cracking festive jokes at the same time!
From Scrooge to Tiny Tim, with all the ghosts in between, you can expect magic, puppetry, live music and side splitting comedy in this spectacular live show. Tickets are £10 for adults, £7 for children and £30 for a family. More info and booking at vivacity.org

With special appearances from Babs the cow and a truly terrifying Giant it's shaping up to be a great show! Join Jack as he reaches new heights on a giant adventure up the beanstalk – it’s sure to be full of fee, fie, fo, fun! Ticket prices start at £30 for a table for two.

Audiences will all be socially distanced and communal areas will be organised so that crowding doesn’t occur.
If you have any worries about attending a show, you can always call the box office and have a chat about the safety measures that have been put in place. We hope to see you from across an auditorium sometime soon!
