Inspired by Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, Humbugged! explores what happens to Jacob Marley after we come to the end of the much loved tale.
In a world full of zany souls and colourful spirit-creatures, Marley’s bitterness from working way too long with mean-old Scrooge, means that he has missed out on earning his longed for wings. He wanders the cobblestoned streets of London in a perpetual monologue of ‘boo-hoo, poor me’, his only friend a quiet raven who loyally looks out for him. But all this changes when he is given an off-the-record opportunity; scare Scrooge into becoming a better man and everything will change!
And so, Marley pulls together a crew of misfits – including a precocious orphan girl named Bozzi and an expert haunter named Smith – and embarks on planning the heist of a lifetime. It’s an hilarious assemblage of supernatural geeks, tricks, and treats, that’s sure the delight audiences young & old for many, many years to come.
