On the WRS Breakfast Show, Katt Cullen speaks with John O’Connor, actor, writer, and director, about his acclaimed one-man adaptation of A Christmas Carol, touring for over a decade.
This year, the performance comes to the Volkshaus, Zurich, in English, offering audiences a chance to experience Dickens’ storytelling as he might have performed it himself.
John and Katt discuss the story behind the show, from the adventures of Ebenezer Scrooge to the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future.
They also touch on familiar versions of the tale, including the Muppets adaptation, and what makes a live Dickens reading so unique and magical for the festive season.
