Matthew Warchus’ big-hearted, smash hit production of Charles Dickens’ immortal classic A Christmas Carol returns to our stage this year, to be performed live from our auditorium and streamed to homes across the world.
This Christmas, come together with your household or with friends and family online to take part in the music and merriment of this uplifting story, joyously adapted by Jack Thorne.
A Christmas Carol will be performed and streamed live as part of our Old Vic: In Camera series. We hope that you will join with us to support the series and feel excited to be part of a live theatre community once again. We need your help in making sure that The Old Vic and our productions are still here to enjoy once our much-missed normal lives resume.

I absolutely adore theatre. This year has been horrible to venues and creatives but there’s been a small glimmer of light in the streamed shows. Tonight’s A Christmas Carol from @oldvictheatre filled my heart with love. A remarkable production. Thank you all involved.

#OVChristmasCarol was one of the best productions I’ve seen, watched w/ my fam who I can’t visit this Christmas. We normally see this play somewhere every year. Just a lovely performance #GodBlessUsEveryOne@oldvictheatre

So good! @oldvictheatre #AChristmasCarol never fails to get me teary in the 2nd half. The way the zoom filming was put together was brilliantly done #OVInCamera I'll be watching it again! Well done, @oldvictheatre

I can’t thank you enough for keeping me sane through this difficult year by keeping theatre alive. May we all be together again in an actual theatre soon.
