The reimagined tale tells the story of mean old Scrooge, who loathes Christmas before he’s taken on a journey by three spirits. He’s shown his past, present and future before changing his ways and embracing the Christmas spirit.
A spokesperson for the Glasgow Fair at George Square said: “Christmas wouldn’t be the same without the story of Scrooge.
“We are delighted to present this free performance by Folksy Theatre, who put on a terrific show.”
Also housed at George Square is the open air ice rink, observation wheel, helter skelter, flying chairs and photo opportunities with Santa and his buddies. Find out more about what's on here.
