This time of year sees an inevitable surplus of revivals of Charles Dickens' famous ghost story. In this particularly dark version of the cautionary tale at the Young Vic, however, the miserly protagonist is a woman. Set in South Africa, the successful yet cynical businesswoman Mrs Scrooge is visited by her former partner on Christmas Eve and revisits a past trapped in apartheid. Coupled with an enthusiastic cast of under-30s and a joyful soundtrack of marimbas, steel drums and uplifting voices, actress and singer Pauline Malefane's performance, under the direction of Brit Mark Dornford-May, is anything but stingy.
