A Christmas Carol 2025
Opera Holland Park, W8 6LU , [Venue Details]After a successful run of performances at Smith Square Hall in 2024, Opera Holland Park brings back Will Todd and David Simpatico’s enchanting musical retelling of A Christmas Carol.
Scored for eight singers, a trio of piano, double bass and accordion, and actor, Todd weaves the melodies of traditional Victorian carols and the midwinter chimes of handbells through each episode of Charles Dickens’s seasonal ghost story.
In a libretto drawn by David Simpatico from the much-loved 1848 novella, we meet Ebenezer Scrooge, the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future, and the family and friends whose kindness Scrooge has hardened his heart against, only to understand by their example the meaning of Christmas. A spooky and salutary story for all ages from Opera Holland Park, with a festive happy ending.
Directed by Martin Duncan (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland), eight of the company’s finest principals perform A Christmas Carol semi-staged in the beautiful setting of Thomas Archer’s Smith Square masterpiece.
