Mad Dogs and Englishmen's first ever production was a new adaptation of the famous tale by Charles Dickens.
With an ingenious set the show was performed by only four actors. This is what the press said:
"With a whirlwind of just-enough costume change, the four produced the illusion of dozens, one actor sometimes addressing his imaginary other persona. The power is there, they deserve to reap the glory."
The Stage
"It is a clever adaptation, which allows the flavour of the original to breathe through a lively version of the tale. It's a feat of concentration, wig-swapping and costume changing. Through it all emerges the story, unscathed, entertaining and exciting."
