He brings the flamboyant, outlandish character to the West End for the very first time in A Christmas Carol (ish), following its sold-out development run at Soho Theatre in 2022.Cast and Creative Team
Nick Mohammed is joined by an all-star cast of top British comedians and actors for his foray into the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. Fresh from the final season of BAFTA-nominated comedy Ghosts, Martha Howe-Douglas features in the cast, alongside David Elms (Borderline) and Kieran Hodgson (Two Doors Down).Matt Peover (The Wind in the Willows UK tour, Shakespeare’s Globe: The Comedy of Errors) directs, with music by Oliver Birch and set design by Fly Davis. Together, they pull off a vibrant and energetic performance that pays homage to Dickens with a heavy dose of humour, fun and satirical comedy.
