Tommy To Take On Scrooge Again

Tommy To Take On Scrooge Again

Date: 4 October 2011

Family favourite Tommy Steele is to return to the role that he has made his own, Ebenezer Scrooge, in Bill Kenwright’s record-breaking London Palladium production of fantastic festive musical Scrooge.

Scrooge is a heartwarming family tale with stunning sets and costumes, specially created illusions by magician Paul Kieve (acclaimed for the magic effects in the Harry Potter films) and a fantastic musical score which features the Oscar nominated hit ‘Thank You Very Much’.

Based on Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol, which encapsulates all that we have grown to consider as Christmas traditions, Scrooge would not be complete without the miserly Ebenezer, Bob Cratchit, the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future, and of course Tiny Tim!

Tommy’s career has included over twenty hit singles, Hollywood movie hits such as The Happiest Millionaire and Finian’s Rainbow, and countless award winning stage musicals such as Half a Sixpence, Hans Andersen and Singin’ in the Rain.

Scrooge plays at Theatre Royal Plymouth Mon 31 October – Sat 5 November.
