About the show

“Procrastination is the thief of time. Collar him!”

David Copperfield of Blunderstone Rookery (with no rooks in it) is swept into a world of peculiar aunts, tyrannical stepfathers and dismal boarding schools—but this is no ordinary Victorian tale, and David is no ordinary hero.

This whirlwind story follows a young man’s journey from humble beginnings to literary success: a life filled with romance, adventure, lovable rogues, wily scoundrels and benevolent patrons.

Three talented actors bring to life 19 of Charles Dickens’ brilliantly drawn characters, including the wonderfully eccentric Betsy Trotwood, the scheming Uriah Heep, the warm-hearted Peggotty, and one of Dickens’ greatest comic creations, the irrepressible Mr. Micawber.

Join us for an enchanting romp brimming with Victorian charm, larger-than-life personalities, timeless wit… and kites… and donkeys…

From the company that brought you the international 5-star hit Pride & Prejudice.
