Share

Get ready for a truly magical holiday experience, Victoria!

A WONDERHEADS Christmas Carol returns this December with three enchanting nights at the McPherson Playhouse.

From December 19th to 21st, watch the acclaimed theatrical Imagineers bring a reimagined, entirely visual version of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol to life with giant masks, whimsical 10-feet tall puppets, and wondrous theatrical inventions.

And the most impressive part? They perform the entire story without a single line of dialogue.

This 75-minute holiday spectacular transports the audience back in time to 1843 London to follow along on Ebenezer Scrooge’s magical and transformational Christmas Eve journey.

Expect to leave enchanted, moved, and laughing!

The WONDERHEADS, co-founded by Kate Braidwood and Andrew Phoenix in 2009, is a physical theater company specializing in mask performance and visual storytelling.

Since then, they have spent more than a decade delivering holiday magic to cities across Canada and the United States, and have received an immense amount of praise, including six Critics’ Choice Awards and 12 Best of Fest honors.

Now in their sixth year of touring this production, they’ve become a cherished holiday tradition for families across the country—especially here in Victoria.

If you’re looking for an unforgettable, imaginative, and hilarious festive outing, A WONDERHEADS Christmas Carol is for you.

Tickets start at $42—grab yours here!
