A Christmas Carol

Sligo Drama Circle is delighted to present an audio recording of “A Christmas Carol” by Paul Thain, adapted from the book by Charles Dickens.

In a new departure for us, we have embraced the wonders of modern technology to create our first audio recording of a play. Involving 21 people, we have been working over the past few weeks, rehearsing, recording and editing to create something really special for the festive season.

Many thanks to all of the cast and crew who worked tirelessly on this project over the past few weeks.

So, get a mince pie and a glass of wine, put on your headphones or hook up your speakers for the best sound quality and enjoy our presentation of “A Christmas Carol”. Simply press the play button below and relax for the next 50 minutes.
