Actors from Britain’s TNT Theater are set to delight audiences in Binh Dinh November 24 with performances of Charles Dickens’ classic “A Christmas Carol.”

The play tells the story of miserly Ebenezer Scrooge who refuses to help anyone despite his or her misfortune. His frozen heart only begins to thaw on Christmas Eve when three ghosts visit him from the past, present and future. 

The main actor, David Ahmad, lives in London and this is his second tour with TNT Theater.

Directed by Paul Stebblings and produced by Grantly Read Marshall, the play is presented by the local Le Quy Duong Company together with the Arts Performing Department under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Through this international arts cooperation, the Le Quy Duong Company says it hopes to boost cultural exchange, diversify professional arts for the country and give Vietnamese audiences exposure to world literature and art masterpieces.

The classic drama will also be performed November 26-29 in Ho Chi Minh City, in the central cities of Hue and Da Nang, and capital Hanoi after November 29.
