“Bah! Humbug!”

Celebrate the Silly Season with Dickens at New Theatre

Festive Fundraiser · Complimentary Glühwein · Carols · Season Pass Raffle

We may not have snow in Sydney and it may not be 1843, but New Theatre is delighted to present a new, moved reading of A Christmas Carol — Dickens’ classic story of greed, compassion, and redemption.

Follow Ebenezer Scrooge as he encounters the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come; revisit the Cratchit family as they make do with little; and reflect on the enduring message of kindness over indifference.

Enjoy a complimentary glass of glühwein, join in some carol singing, and enter our Season Pass Raffle to support our work as a community-driven theatre.

Join us, support local theatre, and mark the season together.

A Christmas Carol runs for 70 mins, with no interval.
