Commentaires : According to a plaque in the Dress Circle Bar, Tommy Steele has headlined more performances at the London Palladium than any other artist (his last show being “Singing in the Rain” in 1989). Although this cheery cockney persona doesn’t immediately suggest Scrooge, he was welcomed back like a conquering hero. It was very enjoyable Christmas fayre.
Presse : NICHOLAS DE JONGH for THE EVENING STANDARD says, "Melancholia, music-hall atmosphere and pantomimic air... infests this...musical...plodding production."
MICHAEL COVENEY for THE INDEPENDENT says, "Enjoyably creaky old musical."
MICHAEL BILLINGTON for THE GUARDIAN says, "The best feature of a dull evening is Paul Kieve's illusions."
BENEDICT NIGHTINGALE for THE TIMES says, "There are good moments...The singing is often so strong that it seems sad that the tunes and lyrics are so ordinary."
CHARLES SPENCER for THE DAILY TELEGRAPH says, "This Scrooge proves quite nauseatingly sentimental."
