I loved it...A well played, nicely pitched al fresco production. ****
Scoot promise "confusion, chaos and costume changes" and certainly deliver...there are lots of laughs to be had...a few cricket jokes...and more live music." ****

This was a really entertaining production which was accessible for all ages and, rather than just working around Covid constraints, worked them in to heighten the midsummer madness.

In December 2020, Scoot Theatre returned to East Molesey Cricket Club for some festive fun with their brand new adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic Christmas story...as it's never been told before!
Three actor-musicians zipped through this sixty-minute, light-hearted, family-friendly production filled with music, song and dance to get everyone firmly in the Christmas ‘spirit’.
Venues: Performed at East Molesey Cricket Club.

Absolutely loved the performance yesterday. Fast paced, funny but also poignant. I’m not sure how you packed the whole story in.

We came on Thursday and thoroughly enjoyed it. We’ve seen all three shows you’ve put on, they’ve all been fab and we applaud you for working so hard to put on some live theatre in such difficult times. You are all amazing. Thank you
