I am going to assume that because your interest has been piqued by seeing that the multi-award winning production of Charles Dicken's classic
A Christmas Carol is coming to Melbourne, you love Christmas and are definitely not a Scrooge.
This immersive experience, brimming with music and merriment will be enjoyed by all ages and could become a new festive tradition for the family.

Erik Thomson, one of Australia’s most loved stars across film, television and theatre will play the role of Ebenezer Scrooge in this classic story of greed, love and redemption.
Thomson said,
I am excited and truly honoured to be joining this beloved and internationally renowned production of The Old Vic’s A Christmas Carol. Charles Dickens’ masterful take on the essence of Christmas and its celebration of joy and connection, told through the redemption of the infamous tight-fisted debt collector Ebenezer Scrooge, is still as pertinent today as it was in the 19th century.

A Christmas Carol follows the transformation and redemption of Ebenezer Scrooge from a cold, stingy and greedy semi-recluse to a benevolent, compassionate man, embodying the Christmas spirit of kindness and generosity.
Winner of five Tony Awards®, this Old Vic production is conceived and directed by Matthew Warchus
(Matilda the Musical) and adapted for the stage by Jack Thorne
(Harry Potter and the Cursed Child).
