This year, the Royal Court Theatre<\/a> will run The Scouse Christmas Carol from November 7 2025 to January 17 2026.<\/p>\n The pantomime <\/a>promises “stupid jokes and live music” as it takes on the Christmas tale written by Charles Dickens. The show description reads: “It\u2019s that time again when the Royal Court searches ‘Christmas shows’ on Google and picks one to scousify!<\/p>\n “This year we\u2019re improving on the great Charles Dickens, who always wanted his shows to have more stupid jokes and live music.<\/p>\n “As always, this is a show for grownups only so pack the kids off to their nan\u2019s for the night and come and join us for a laugh!<\/p>\n “Jacob Marley is dead and nobody knows who bumped him off.<\/p>\n “Mary Marley, his missus, is going to track down the killer and she\u2019s got one man in her sights. Scrooge. But how can she make him cough to the crime?<\/p>\n “Ebeneezer is a geezer who always quite fancied Mary, but now she\u2019s ghosting him with the help of the Scratchitt family and Mr Kettiwig. Will he learn his lesson? Will Marley be avenged by three little birds? Will Charlie Dicko spin so fast in his grave that a sinkhole opens up? Only one way to find out\u2026”<\/p>\n An update issued by the theatre has confirmed this year’s cast with some returning members.<\/p>\n
