Lighthouse Theatre

The Chimes is the second in Dickens's series of Christmas books, with as powerful a punch now as it had at the time.

In the run-up to the festive season, local porter, Trotty Veck, falls asleep in the doorway of a church. Woken by the bells, and magically dragged up the tower, he has just one chance to change this world... but will he listen to the bells?

The Chimes is a Victorian " It's a Wonderful Life" filled with all of the master story-teller's colourful characters and heart-rending poignancy.

Fresh from successful adaptations of Dylan Thomas's Reminiscences of Childhood and A Christmas Carol, Lighthouse Theatre brings their signature style to this classic by the most theatrical of authors. With a company of five, carols, music and – of course – bells!...this show is sure to be fast and funny, inventive and entertaining; but most of all a Christmas treat to reinforce the message of this festive time of the year...
