WOULD YOU LIKE TO BOOK MR DICKENS?  READ ON...

 

A Date With Dickens is available for booking during Autumn/Winter/Spring 2014-15, primarily in NW and central England (but feel free to enquire about other locations).  

If you are interested in hosting one or more performances at your venue and/or for your group, organisation or network, the following may help - based on feedback from audiences so far.

 

The show works ideally for an audience of 25-100.  It is flexible, in that:

 

- timing and precise content are open to negotiation (it can be, for example, a 45-minute one-act piece or a 90-minute performance with an interval;  built around  short excerpts from up to a dozen of Dickens' works, or longer extracts from particular novels if agreed in advance);

 

- it requires only a lectern, or sturdy music stand, a quiet space and an audience;

 

- I am happy to consider either a venue hire arrangement or a modest fixed rate payment.   To help make Dickens as accessible as possible, it is a point of principle to keep prices affordable,

with a concessionary rate available;

 

- it can "stand alone " or be part of a broader event, be that primarily literary/artistic or community-orientated, e.g. a 'Victorian supper evening'.

 

There is always a good deal of interest in booking Dickensian performances in the lead-up to Christmas.  However, you will have suggestions as to when and how the production might work best

in your space/for your audience, and I look forward to hearing back from you at your convenience.
