Dickens staggers onto the stage and falls dead. Seconds later he leaps up, full of life and energy. He has decided to get it over with right at the beginning, get it out of the way so that he and his “host of personal and affectionate friends” (the audience) can approach the rest of their time together with enthusiasm, without the threat of his death hanging over them.

This is not just a jolly ‘evening with Dickens’, not simply an entertaining diversion. It is an evening with the man behind the myth.
