Commedia Christmas Carol

Join Traveling Players for this performance, based on the novel by Charles Dickens! Ebenezer Scrooge is an excellent man of business. He cares a lot about money – but very little for his fellow man. This miserly banker categorically shuns charity, compassion, and cheer. Enter a terrifying ghost on Christmas Eve! Jacob Marley (dead for 7 years) visits Scrooge, his old business partner with a warning: Mankind is your business! Change your ways or suffer forever! You will wear the chains of a life misspent, as I do! At Marley’s behest, three spirits take Scrooge on an unforgettable journey into his Past, Present, and Future, laying out his life in front of him. Once Scrooge can see what adds up to a life well spent, can he alter his ways, and therefore his fate? Perhaps Tiny Tim, the son of his office clerk, can change his heart.
