Scrooge / The Story of Santa Claus / The Toy ShopSCROOGE starring Seymour Hicks, Leedham Bantock and William Lugg. Seymour (later "Sir Seymour") Hicks made a career of portraying Ebenezer Scrooge, possibly Dickens' most memorable character, in "A Christmas Carol". He made the first sound film version of the story in 1935 but, twenty two years earlier, he made this nearly forgotten silent version. Compact and utilizing some primitive but effective special effects, this is a fascinating presentation

He has education in music (the Ignacy Jan Paderewski Academy of Music in Poznan) and visual arts (the Wladyslaw Strzeminski Academy of Fine Arts in Lódz)

"Lebe dich leer" ("empty yourself by living") bears witness to that: Each song differs from the next

Mariko Terashi studied in France and has lived in the UK since 1995 where she enjoys an active concert career as soloist and chamber musician
