A CHRISTMAS CAROL
Ebenezer Scrooge, is a wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, old miser. Until one Christmas Eve when he is visited by the ghost of his old business partner Jacob Marley, who tells him that he will be visited that very night by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Future. The spectres take an unwilling Scrooge on a journey through time where he is forced to see the error of his ways, and comes to appreciate his fellow man and revel in the joy of Christmas.
A full-length, non musical adaptation of Charles Dickens beloved classic masterpiece which uses Narrators to weave Dickens' beautiful narrative into the dialogue.
