Christmas in Derby gets a delightfully daft twist as Count Arthur Strong brings his latest festive show, Count Arthur Strong Is Charles Dickens in “A Christmas Carol”, to Derby Theatre.
In his own wonderfully muddled way, Arthur sets out to tell the story of Charles Dickens before launching into a one-man take on the beloved Christmas classic, A Christmas Carol. Expect gloriously off-topic tangents, misremembered facts, and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments as he wrestles with Dickens, Scrooge and the ghosts of Christmas… with varying degrees of success.
Perfect for fans of classic British comedy, this is a brilliant alternative to a traditional Christmas show in Derby – warm, witty and just the right amount of chaotic. If you’re looking for a festive night out that’s a bit different but still full of Christmas spirit, this is one to get in the diary.
