Erik Thomson, one of Australia’s most loved and award-winning stars across film, television, and theatre, plays the coveted role of Ebenezer Scrooge in the blockbuster production of A Christmas Carol – Melbourne’s new festive tradition, now playing at the Comedy Theatre until 29 December.

Returning cast include Aisha Adara as Little Fan, Kaya Byrne as Fred, Sarah Morrison as Belle, Stephanie Lambourn as Mrs Cratchit; Samantha Morley as the Ghost of Christmas Present; Grant Piro as Fezziwig; Cameron Taylor as Nicholas Ferdy; Benjamin Colley as George; and Jack Van Staveren and Jasmine Vaughns as swings.

Winner of five Tony Awards®, the smash-hit Old Vic production of Charles Dickens’ immortal classic is conceived and directed by Matthew Warchus (Matilda the Musical) and adapted for the stage by Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), audiences are welcomed into an immersive experience, brimming with music and merriment.
