The Christmas Tale

A perverse adaptation of the iconic work of Charles Dickens in a moving dance-acrobatic spectacle that warms with the warmth of a newfound sensibility.

The story of the legendary miser, plunged into a blind pursuit of wealth, gains new depth here. The visit of the Three Spirits becomes for the protagonist an invitation to travel to the past, present and future Christmas Eve - an encounter with his own shadows, which slowly creates cracks in the armor of bitterness.

The cold world of Ebenezer Scrooge is brought to life on stage with spectacular dance-acrobatic choreographies, narrative light directing and artistic visuals. The language of movement intertwines with theatrical narrative, creating a tale of dormant memories, missed opportunities, and fears of the inevitable.

A family performance that evokes the power of closeness and prompts reflection, resounds with invigorating sounds of jazz, blues and soul — in the nostalgic rhythm of a vinyl record interspersed with thrilling, festive evergreens.

Is there still time to change tomorrow? See an adaptation that proves that a classic can still surprise. Get ready for the finale that will completely change your perspective on the story of Ebenezer Scrooge. Having learned the secret of this festive night, you will understand why this story does not let you forget about yourself.
