A Christmas Carol: A Musical Retelling
13 December 2026 · Chelsea
About this event
Eight Opera Holland Park principals perform Will Todd and David Simpatico's semi-staged musical retelling of Dickens's A Christmas Carol, directed by Martin Duncan. The score for singers, an actor and a trio of piano, double bass and accordion weaves Victorian carols and handbell chimes through Scrooge's story.
