A Dewsbury Christmas Carol 2020
The Drama Club was awarded a grant from Third Sector Leaders to work in conjunction with Creative Scene on street performance characters based upon Charles Dickens ‘A Christmas Carol’. It had been intended to perform as part of the Christmas lights switch on but due to Covid19 restrictions this was cancelled. Instead the YouTube Video 'A Dewsbury Christmas Carol', was filmed by Andy Wicks in green screen to satisfy Covid regulations. None of the actors saw their fellow performers contributions until the final film was produced.
