A Christmas Carol


Performance

12 & 13 December 2025 at 7pm

Bewley’s Café Theatre and The James Joyce Centre presented Charles Dickens’ timeless classic A Christmas Carol! Watch as you are transported back to Victorian London and follow the heartwarming journey of Ebenezer Scrooge on Friday & Saturday, 12 & 13 December 2025 at 7pm.

Performed by Michael James FordSinead Murphy, and Sam Ford, the performance showed Scrooge’s ghostly journey to redemption, accompanied by a richly atmospheric live musical score. A sell-out hit at the Viking Theatre for the past nine years, it was the perfect way to experience Dickens’ masterpiece and share his world of phantoms, darkness, merriment, and everlasting goodwill.

“Don’t miss this delightful version of the classic.” Sunday Independent

“…fine dramatic storytelling…perfect for the season.” Red Curtain Review

“It lingers in the mind…it really is superb.” Donnchadh O’Laoire

The James Joyce Centre is supported by the Department of Culture, Communication and Sport.
