Hi guys 👋🏻
At the weekend me and my husband went to see ‘A Christmas Carol’ at our local theatre.
It was a one man show performed by Vincent Franklin. He has been in loads of famous shows such as Doc Martin, Happy Valley, The Office and The Thick Of It.
He was brilliant and the show was really enjoyable. The way he performed it was haunting, entertaining and comical at different points throughout and he brought the story alive with his brilliant portrayal of this classic story.
The way he used a very basic, yet very effective, set ans very few props to create so much was mesmerising and clever. It is one of my favourite parts of theatre when your imagination is unlocked by the simplest props and sets. So enjoyable.
The post show talk was amazing, a really interesting insight into the show itself, as well as the actors love of the story of ‘A Christmas Carol’. It added a lot to the experience for sure.
I really like the story of ‘A Christmas Carol’ and I try and read it each year. I love the beautiful editions you can see in the picture above.
The story of ‘A Christmas Carol’ is so relevant in our current world, we all need to think of others and how our actions effect them more than we do, as a collective, and I like how it really makes you think about yourself, yout behaviour, the way you treat and view others etc.
Have you been to see a Christmas show?
6 days until Christmas!
Until Next Time,
Roseanne 🙂
