A Midwinter Mummer’s Tale

"A Midwinter Mummers Tale," is Terra Mysterium's original folk adaptation of Charles Dickens' beloved classic "A Christmas Carol,” and concerns the transformation of Esmerelda Pennywise through visitations from powerful Ancient beings. It features British folk customs, new arrangements of beloved British folk songs, original compositions by Matthew Ellenwood, and brings a holiday magick of a different stripe to this beloved tale!
