Sheffield Theatre A Christmas Carol

Sheffield Theatres have released a first look image ahead of their upcoming production of A Christmas Carol which opens at the Crucible Theatre on Saturday 29 November running through until Saturday 10 January 2026.

This production of the timeless festive tale is directed by Elin Schofield in a new adaptation by Aisha Khan with its heart very much rooted in Sheffield, featuring the local tradition of the Sheffield Carols. Forged by the city’s communities, Sheffield has kept this choral tradition alive over decades of change - redemption, heart, and festive spirit which will intertwine with Charles Dickens’ classic story in this brand-new production.

Aaron Anthony will perform the roles of Fred & Edward; Kimberly Blake will perform the roles of Mrs Cratchit, Young Ebenezer’s Mother & Laundress; Lucy Brindle will perform the roles of Isobel & Charwoman; Nitai Levi will perform the role of the Ghost of Christmas Past and Kiah Lindsay will perform the roles of Little Fan & Martha; Mel Lowe will perform the role of Jack; Ian Midlane will perform the role of Ebenezer Scrooge; Ryan O’Donnell will perform the roles of Bob Cratchit & Young Ebenezer; Anthony Ofoegbu will perform the role of Jacob Marley and Adam Price will perform the role of the Ghost of Christmas Present. Simon Whitaker and Karen Wilkinson will perform as Swings and as cast, plus Simon will work as Music Captain for the production. The cast are completed by a young company of twelve, who will perform in groups of four across the performance dates. 

‘I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.’

On a bitter Christmas Eve, the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge shuns festive cheer and human kindness, content in his cold, solitary world.

But when the ghost of his former partner warns of a dreadful fate, Scrooge is thrust into a journey through his past, present, and future. As the spirits reveal the consequences of his ways, he must decide whether to embrace change or be doomed to loneliness forever.
