Jo chats to actor Stephen Mangan, who’s starring in the Old Vic Theatre’s production of Charles Dickens’ immortal classic A Christmas Carol.

Matthew Warchus’ big-hearted, smash hit production of Charles Dickens’ immortal classic A Christmas Carol is joyously adapted for the stage by Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child).

The Old Vic’s production of A Christmas Carol won five Tony Awards for Best Original Score, Best Scenic Design of a Play, Best Costume Design of a Play, Best Lighting Design of a Play and Best Sound Design of a Play, for its Broadway run at the Lyceum Theatre in 2019.

Stephen Mangan is starring as Ebenezer Scrooge in A Christmas Carol at the Old Vic until 8th Jan 2022.
