Charles Dickens brought into the world a staggering array of wonderful characters, some heroic, some tragic, some comical, any memorable.

Oliver Twist, Mr Micawber, Fagin and Abel Magwitch are well known and remembered. Largely self-educated, Dickens possessed the genius to become the greatest writer of his age with 15 major novels and countless short stories and articles.

Bertie Pearce brings to St Barnabas a look at the life and places of Dickens through his characters, in a talk interspersed with readings of Dickens’ works. A truly Dickensian experience.
