About

It's 1866 and Charles Dickens is a Victorian Superstar. Embarking on an epic tour of Great Britain and America, Dickens was like a literary rock star, his one-man performances of his most famous works packed theatres to the rafters. But away from the footlights, he bore shameful secrets and a lifestyle unbecoming of a Victorian gentleman.

Charles Dickens: The Readings And The Rumours is a brand-new co-production from Dickens Theatre Company and the Palace Theatre, featuring excerpts from Oliver Twist, A Christmas Carol and The Pickwick Papers.
