Patrick Stewart stars as miser Ebenezer Scrooge in this quality retelling of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol”.
The classic
tale in which he is taught the true meaning of Christmas by three Spirits who
visit him, revealing to him the truth about his own miserable existence,
what opportunities he wasted in his youth, his current catalogue of cruelties,
and the dire fate that awaits him if he does not change his ways.
Scrooge is faced with his own story of growing bitterness and meanness,
and must decide what his own future will hold, death or redemption.
The Spirits are played by Joel Grey (Past), Desmond Barrit (Present) and
Tim Potter (Future)
The other key characters and portrayed by Bernard Lloyd (Marley), Laura
Fraser (Belle), Richard E. Grant and Saskia Reeves (The Cratchit’s), Ben Tibber
(Tiny Tim), Ian McNeice and Annette Badland (The Fezziwig’s), Dominic West
(Fred) and Rosie Wiggins (Fran).
