This feature-length documentary goes behind the scenes of a leading amateur theatrical company as they gear up to their December 2001 production – a new adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. It shows in detail just what effort and dedication it takes to put a play on the stage. Featuring interviews with representatives of all the various departments and in-depth ‘fly on the wall’ footage of rehearsals – as well as backstage preparations and extracts from the show – this is a fascinating, funny, educational and at times moving film.
