- A Christmas Carol, is a novella by Charles Dickens, first published in London by Chapman & Hall in 1843 and illustrated by John Leech.
A Christmas Carol recounts the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, an elderly miser who is visited by the ghost of his former business partner Jacob Marley and the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come. After their visits, Scrooge is transformed into a kinder, gentler man.
This production of 'A Christmas Carol' is bought to you by Studio Severn and all the artists involved are unpaid and the production gains no money whatsoever. This has all been made in the true spirit of Christmas.
It is an adaptation of the 1939, radio play starring Lionel Barrymore, whom some say is the best and only Ebeneezer Scrooge.

Even though I am lonely on Christmas And I can't be with the one I love How to play this over and over and it keeps me company and keeps me from crying and being sad
I read A Christmas Carol a lot more now now that we'll be seeing Fionnula Flanagan (Mrs Dilber in A Christmas Carol 2009) as President Snow's Grandma in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
I listened while putting up my Christmas decorations and thoroughly enjoyed this production. Made a nice change from visual versions.
So glad you enjoyed it 😀 thanks for listening
Pay me
Loved this! The 1st time I heard The Christmas Carol was 1960 on a record. Mesmerized ever since.
Go back to playing fortnite
I love radio dramas! Thank you!!!
I don't often listen to audiobooks, but I have found that full or partial cast reads are always much better than solo narration in my opinion. I listened to this as I worked on some Christmas Carol themed artwork I've started this week.
There is a difference to this though in that it isn't an audio book. This is a full cast audio drama. There is a huge difference between the two mediums. An audio book is normally a straight narration with someone reading the actual book. These may sometimes have the narrator plus one or two more people doing the voices. A full cast audio drama such as this is a radio play like you would see at a theater. It involves many actors, sound effects etc to bring a story alive. Either way I'm so glad you listened and hope you enjoyed it. Next year we have a new Christmas production that will be huge also

Hello, thank you for uploading this. Greetings from Ireland, on Monday, the 10th of October 2022 @12.47 pm. 🧡🇮🇪💚
P. S. It starts at 5:15.
No problem I had great fun producing it so hope you enjoy
This is my favorite version of A Christmas Carol. Been listening to it since it was uploaded. Wonderful job, ladies and gents.
Thankyou so much we are very proud of it
Thank you! Bravo!💚❤️💚❤️
Nice listen during this crazy time.
Thank you so much :)
I just finished listening to this great work you did, I loved it. Congratulations, cheers and thanks from Chile.
Thankyou so much I am very pleased you enjoyed it so much. Merry Christmas
What a wonderfully entertaining adaptation, listening third time for Christmas in July
Thank you so very much :)
Wonderful!
i love it.
37:05 Fezziwig in the book says, "Chirrup, Ebenezer!" This does not mean "cheer up," it's an onomatopoeic word based on the chirruping of a bird. It's just Fezziwig being ebullient. Besides, with Fezziwig about, nobody needs cheering up! 🙂
Just listened to this with my family - it was well appricated! Great job - thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas :)
Thankyou
Excellent production!
Awesomeness
Convenient I found this. Merry Christmas.🎄
Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening
They are doing pretty much the exact same dialogue from Orson Wells Mercury Theater with Lionel Barrymore Christmas version. Thanks for sharing 🎄
Which is what it tells you It's an adaptation of that 1939 script. There are a few slight changes and a couple of added bits that we felt needed to be added that weren't in that script. One of the best condensed versions of A Christmas Carol there is. Thanks for listening :)
This is so interesting my family used to own another version on tape but this is better I love it it brings me back to old family memories, this is so cool I really enjoy listening to it, great job, Merry Christmas and a happy New Year Everyone.
That makes me so happy to hear. I love that it brings back all those memories. Merry Christmas and a happy New year. Thank you
@@studiosevern1475 yes thank you and your welcome
The George C. Scott version is my favorite.
Another classic
Came here to say this! His performance was excellent.
Yeah, George C Scott.
The 12/24/39 'A Christmas Carol' has always been my favorite audio version and Lionel Barrymore has always been 'Scrooge'. It will be nice to listen to it with an actual Brit cast. I'm about ten minutes into the show now. Your 'Scrooge' is convincing, but so far I still prefer Barrymore.
Barrymore is also the finite Scrooge for me. However we hope we did enough to pay homage to this great tale
I listened to the 1939 recording of Barrymore after reading your comment, but found it weird Scrooge having an American accent.
@@Pommy1957 It's a perfect example of 'suspending disbelief' in order to enjoy the story! Maybe Scrooge is an American who moved to England because he's on the lam from the IRS?
Alastair Sim is my Scrooge. It's not Christmas until I watch him in "Scrooge". Next would be Michael Caine.
I'm sure you'll find him somewhere to watch this time of year 😂
@@studiosevern1475 Yup, a few years ago here on TH-cam. th-cam.com/video/5HfPF1CskY8/w-d-xo.html
@@sazfretz1945I still wish they had made a Christmas carol with Michale Caine as a proper version and not with the muppets (Although brilliant). I think he would have been the definitive Scrooge given a proper version and not comedy.
Really just got an Adam on this and don’t wanna read it myself
Hiya I literally have no idea what that means lol but hope you enjoyed it :)
I am the ghost of Darth Vader Marley....WHAT on EARTH did you do to Star Wars??😂😂
Candidates debate
I thought Alistair Sim made a great Scrooge.

Is this good to use for GCSE?
In what way would you like to use it?
@@studiosevern1475 to get an understanding for the story and the character relationships
@@karlsmurthwaite498 by all means feel free :)
Well F*****king Done, My Friends! :)
Scrooge a sweaty?
???
Outrageous what they did to Jacob Marley, works hard and minds his own business and that is what he gets!Marley was not Jack the Ripper.I know it is fiction but the idea itself is repulsive to me.Shameful shameful
This Scrooge was annoyingly “feeble”... idk how else to describe it, but far from Scrooge like. Everything else was good.
