Blending
storytelling theatre and song, Charles Dickens' timeless Yuletide tale gets a
musical update in this acoustic celebration of Christmas. Slade star Noddy
Holder narrates Dickens' classic story, adapted by Chris Bartlett, co-creator
of the Edinburgh and West End hit 'Pete and Dud: Come Again'. In between, led
by pianist Robert Webb, a line-up of very special guest vocalists Knox of the
Vibrators, Simon Scardanelli, Marc Atkinson and Grace Solero perform unplugged
versions of seasonal hits from the likes of Jethro Tull, The Pretenders, Greg
Lake and more, as the story of Scrooge and his ghostly visitations gets retold
with a modern music business twist Never Mind the Humbug! The story so
far... Eddie Scrooge is a mean-spirited and cold-hearted record label executive
who has fallen out of love with music and cut off himself from his friends and
family. One freezing cold Christmas Eve night, he is visited by the ghost of his
dead music biz partner Jake Marley and an eerie night-time journey begins. Three
Christmas Musical Spirits come to show him the error of his ways. By visiting
his past, present and future, will Eddie again learn to love Christmas and Christmas
songs and find harmony with everyone he knows? |
