A CHRISTMAS CAROL
Adaptation by Alan Pollock after Charles Dickens
Set and Costume Designer
Barn Theatre 2025
I have to commend Anna Kelsey for the superb set design. The use of the stage is impeccable; set and props are seen rising from trap doors, dropping from the fly loft and a toolbox of tricks is impressively used, in the most part to create smooth and seamless scene transitions that really make an impact.

The traditional Dickensian setting is beautifully realised, enhanced by impressive technical wizardry that brings the ghosts to life in inventive ways. The set design deserves special praise: remarkably versatile, it shifts effortlessly between the many locations demanded of such a small stage.
