Illustration of a Victorian street stage scene with a man in a nightgown and a glowing ghost (A Christmas Carol)

A Christmas Carol

The production opens in an 1864 London home where a mother reads Charles Dickens' classic tale to her family, sparking her youngest child's imagination. Household objects and family members transform on stage into the characters and settings of Ebenezer Scrooge's world. Audiences watch the miserly Scrooge journey alongside the ghosts of Jacob Marley and Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come toward redemption.
