About the event
Though not a musical, this fresh take on Dickens’ timeless tale weaves in beloved Christmas carols performed live, bringing warmth and spirit to the stage.
On a cold Christmas Eve, Scrooge is his usual miserly self—snapping at his clerk, scorning charity, and rejecting his nephew’s invitation to celebrate. But when he returns home, he’s confronted by the ghost of his late business partner, Jacob Marley… and then by three more unearthly visitors: the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come.
Together, they take Scrooge on a haunting journey through his life—his lonely childhood, the love he lost to greed, the family he overlooks, and the grim future awaiting him if he does not change.
By dawn, Scrooge awakens transformed. Filled with newfound joy and generosity, he celebrates Christmas with open arms—proving it’s never too late to rediscover the true spirit of the season.
