Lakeland theatre turns the clock back for Christmas story

KESWICK’S Theatre by the Lake is turning the clock back to its first Christmas production for this year’s festive show, which opens on November 29.

Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol is a revival of the successful production that was the theatre’s first Christmas show shortly after it opened in 1999.

It heralds the start of the theatre’s tenth anniversary celebrations.

It won’t be exactly the same because this time the theatre has assembled a company of actor musicians to sing and play the carols which are such an integral part of the story telling.

A Christmas Carol runs until Saturday, January 17. Cast members are: Kieran Buckeridge, Peter Macqueen, Heather Phoenix, Jennifer Rhodes, Charlie Tighe, Simeon Truby, Ella Vale and Dan Wexler.

Is Ofsted right to crack down on boring teaching?

Yes, young minds need to be stimulated to encourage a love of learning.

No, I had to put up with lessons that make you go to sleep - so kids these days should too.

Haven't they got more important things to do?
