One of Britains greatest ever writers, Charles Dickens is most associated with Victorian London and in particular the misery and poverty we call Dickensian, so he has not — up until now — been much used as a literary brand. Now on an industrial estate in the rather run down town of Chatham in Kent where the writer grew up, Dickens World is opening, a theme park dedicated, so it says, to giving a flavour of life in Dickenss England. The centrepiece is a boat ride through an elaborate interactive stage set of picturesque slums and their associated smells, to bring back an illusion of real Victorian life — and misery. It has caused a familiar debate of entertainment versus education. While critics have attacked the trivialisation of Dickenss legacy, the organizers reply that the writer was a great popular entertainer who would have heartily approved of such a theme park. The critics say the real Dickens experience is in the books — and trips down fake Victorian sewers wont get people reading. But it is of course ultimately a business proposition, investing 120 million dollars, and predicting 300,000 visitors a year. That shows a lot of confidence in both the pulling power of Dickens and of theme park versions of misery and poverty. A5.
