Sorry, I know this is an American site, but for UK fans, I see there's a radio production staring Anthony Newley from 1995 on Radio 4 Extra on Christmas Eve, I'll be recording it.
Scrooge - The Musical
Christmas Eve, midday-2.30pm, BBC Radio 4 Extra
BBC Radio 4 Extra presents a special festive treat - Leslie Bricusse’s musical adaptation of the classic Charles Dickens tale A Christmas Carol, which theatre expert Sheridan Morley calls a “superlative production”.
Starring in the title role is singer, actor and songwriter Anthony Newley, who began his career in another Dickens adaptation, playing the Artful Dodger in David Lean’s 1948 film Oliver Twist.
Co-starring in Scrooge are Stratford Johns (Z-Cars, Doctor Who) as the Ghost of Christmas Present, Barry Howard (Hi-De-Hi) as Jacob Marley, and Felicity Soper (Romulus My Father, Neighbours) as the Ghost of Christmas Past.
Based on the much-loved 1951 film starring Alastair Sim, Scrooge was recorded at the Palace Theatre in Manchester and first broadcast on BBC Radio 2 in 1995.
Director: Tudor Davies
Music director: David Beer
Producer: John Langridge for the BBC
