Dickens: The Readings

14:50United Kingdom - Scotland
Performer / Performance company

Assembly Festival

'There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour.' Dickens knew it then. We're counting on it now. Over 150 years since Charles Dickens last stood on an Edinburgh stage for his legendary Public Readings, now, his greatest works return – alive, unfiltered and different every day. Each performance pairs a fresh Dickens text with a Fringe performer: well-known faces, a surprise or two and the electric uncertainty of a story meeting its teller. You know his greatest stories but along with them there are so many more.
