She also shares some fun comedic beats with Bradley, usually involving him silencing her or otherwise poking fun at some of the source material (in the most respectful fashion only, of course). Acclaimed, award-winning British actor Simon Callow stars in his one-man show that brings to life the Charles Dickens classic A Christmas Carol at the Arts. He isn’t entirely alone on Liz Cooke and Rory Beaton’s sumptuously atmospheric stage, though joined as he is by musician Sophie Crawford, who adds further punch and pathos to Bradley’s fine work with musical accompaniment (some being of Crawford’s own composition), percussive sound effects performed directly on stage, and a beautiful, oft-haunting voice that carries folk lullabies or soothing vocal backing ringing out into the auditorium.

As narrator, he keeps the story pumping at a rhythmic pace, with a keen sense for when silence and momentary pauses lend an air of theatre to the storytelling, whilst in character he skulks, bounds and even jigs his way across the stage, injecting the necessary joy and whimsy into Dickens’ ultimately magical fable. Callow, renowned actor, director and author, has written two books on Dickens, portrayed him on film and television, and has been thrilling audiences since 2011 with his sold-out one-man performances of A Christmas Carol. It’s a glorious marriage of performer and material Bradley spritely, spirited (pun intended) and frequently captivating as he guides an audience through this truly timeless classic.
