Hah! BUMHUG

"Better than Dickens, as good as the Muppets"

After a fantastic run at The Old Library - Into Bodmin, December 2024, we are excited to announce we are bringing Hah Bumhug back to the stage for winter 2025. Bigger and sparklier than before, expect the same Big Tim but now with his friend and fine musician Mr Julian Gaskell! 

We all know the classic Dickens tale A Christmas Carol, but did you ever wonder what happened after the ghosts had scarpered?

Sure, Scrooge changed his miserly ways, but a certain kid grew up wanting more, more, MORE! Time makes fools of us all and it’s turned Tim (don’t let him catch you calling him Tiny) into a naughty little bad boy; a cunning cat burglar out for his share of Ebenezer’s ill-gotten gains...Not even the Ghost of Christmas Future saw this one coming. Want to hear Tim’s version of the story? Grab your overcoats and top hats and come to see (and possibly get involved in...) HAH BUMHUG; a joyfully interactive, funny, festive Christmas classic, retold in a way you’ve never seen before; full of yuletide laughs bringing together all the family. 

Written and performed by Lecoq-trained clown Ethel Darling with live music from Julian Gaskell. As Tim says “God help us! Everyone...”

Directed by Daniel Richards of Owdyado, Miracle Theatre and Near-ta fame.
