A Christmas Carol

Helsinginkatu 58, 00260 Helsinki
Finnish National Opera and Ballet

The miserly and cold-hearted Ebenezer Scrooge cares little for Christmas or his fellow beings. During the night, the spirits of Christmas take him on a journey

The miserly and cold-hearted Ebenezer Scrooge cares little for Christmas or his fellow beings. During the night, the spirits of Christmas take him on a journey through the past, present, and future. Will Scrooge come to understand the true meaning of Christmas?

Charles Dickens’ Christmas tale of kindness and justice has captivated theatre audiences for over 180 years. In the autumn season of 2023, A Christmas Carol was experienced for the first time as a ballet, thanks to the British choreographer David Bintley.

The story unfolds in 19th-century London, during the industrialisation of the Victorian age. This heartwarming ballet received enthusiastic acclaim from audiences and critics alike, with all performances selling out fast. Secure your seat in the audience for this Christmas.
