Scrooge the Musical BSL/CAP Performance

A British Sign Language and captioned performance of Scrooge the Musical, staged at the SEC Armadillo in Glasgow. The production adapts Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol as a musical.

Scrooge the Musical is a stage adaptation of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol, following the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge through his transformation at Christmas. This performance is presented with British Sign Language interpretation and captions, which make the production accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences as well as to anyone who prefers to follow the story with text on screen.

The cast is credited with Marti Pellow, a Scottish singer and member of the pop band Wet Wet Wet, who was born in Clydebank in 1965. Pellow's pop background sits alongside a musical theatre production built around Dickens's story, a combination that suits audiences who know the novella as well as those coming to it for the first time.

The SEC Armadillo hosts concerts and shows in Glasgow, and this production is staged there as part of its programme of theatre and musical productions.
