Rehearsal photographs of Adam Long’s Dickens Abridged with dream cast including Damian Humbley, Matthew Hendrickson, Jon Robyns, Kit Orton and Gerard Carey.
“Dickens Abridged is the brainchild of Adam Long, a founding member of The Reduced Shakespeare Company. It’s a high-speed comic journey through Dickens’ Greatest Hits, including Oliver Twist, Great Expectations (in under sixty seconds), David Copperfield, Bleak House, A Tale of Two Cities (complete with a fully functioning guillotine and singing severed head), Nicholas Nickleby, Old CuriosityShop, and, of course… A Christmas Carol as the grand finale in which Tiny Tim rocks the house with a searing electric guitar solo.”
The show ran at the Arts Theatre from 27 November 2013 – 5 January 2014.
You’ve expertly captured so many gorgeous moments it’s going to be difficult to choose which ones to use.

I have no idea how you got some of these shots! You really captured the feel of the day.
