Join us at the James Joyce Centre for a touch of Old Hollywood glamour with a production of Orson Welles' classic 1938 radio play by AboutFace Theatre Company.
The James Joyce Centre is delighted to host an AboutFACE Theatre production of Orson Welles' Christmas Carol.
The festive "radio play within a play" for all the family is back by public demand. In this fast-moving, heartfelt comedy based on true events, radio superstar Orson Welles and his Mercury Theatre gang are presenting “A Christmas Carol” in New York live ON-AIR on Christmas Eve 1938 . . . having just lost their Scrooge! Can Orson and his overworked cast survive the last minute chaos to give this Christmas Carol a happy ending?
Featuring a 45-minute version of A Christmas Carol in the 1930s radio style with live sound effects and carols, this is a Christmas treat for the whole family - with a touch of Old Hollywood glamour!
