Alexandra Palace Theatre, London

Experience a spine-tingling Christmas with Mark Gatiss's A Christmas Carol - A Ghost Story!

Starting Saturday 22 November 2025

Marley was dead: to begin with.

Following a phenomenally successful run in 2021, Mark Gatiss’ retelling of Dickens’ winter ghost story returns to the hauntingly atmospheric Alexandra Palace Theatre.

Bound in chains as punishment for a lifetime of greed, the unearthly figure explains it isn’t too late for Scrooge to change his miserly ways in order to escape the same fate, but first he’ll have to face three more eerie encounters…
