On the night of December 18, join us in the twinkling splendour of our gorgeous Noverre Ballroom for an unforgettable evening of festive feasting and heart-warming storytelling as we bring A Christmas Carol to magical life.
Arrive at 6.30pm and step into the spirit of the season with a glass of mulled wine and canapés served as carols float through the air and the story begins to unfold around you.
Gathered at communal tables, you'll be treated to an atmospheric retelling of Dickens' classic tale of redemption, delivered by the brilliant vocal quartet and narration team of Minty Spectre.
This immersive experience blends three elegant courses of Christmas fare with three spellbinding live performances.
As you dine, be drawn into the timeless journey of Ebenezer Scrooge as he encounters the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future, with scenes brought vividly to life by characterful narration and rich harmonies.
Expect laughter, music, a few goosebumps and a generous helping of Christmas cheer – all served with The Assembly House’s signature sparkle.
Tickets are £68.50 per person, which includes a welcome drink, canapés, three-course dinner and enchanting entertainment.
To book, call 01603 626402 to avoid EventBrite fees.
Please note: This event lasts approximately three hours and features three 30-minute performances. After welcome drinks and canapés, there will be the first segment of the performance at 7pm and then your starter and main course will be served before the next section of the performance. Dessert and coffee will then be served before the last third of the magical performance.
The perfect opening act to a magical Christmas week!
