It may be the season to be jolly, but Ebenezer Scrooge, the meanest and most cold-hearted man in London, has arrived in Tunbridge Wells.

A cavalcade of colorful characters and collection of songs is the perfect way to get you in the Christmas spirit at the Trinity Hall Theatre in Church Road.

From the creator of Peter Pan the musical, A Christmas Carol by Piers Chater Robinson, has been adapted by Chris Blackwood from the class novel by Charles Dickens.

The show, sponsored by kmfm, began on Thursday and runs to Saturday, January 3.

It has already been a hit with those who have been to watch with one guest praising the cast, especially Scrooge, for their performance.
