A Christmas Carol

Presented by Dallas Theater Center

Description

Think of it as the ultimate scary ghost story, but with a happy ending! Charles Dickens’ beloved classic about a mean old man spooked into rediscovering what life’s about jumps across the footlights in this annual DTC revival of a holiday favorite. Set in Victorian London, where the privileged, in their fancy parlors, prosper while the poor struggle to survive, A Christmas Carol speaks to all ages as it tells the tale of the cynical Ebenezer Scrooge. With a heart hardened by a tragic childhood and lost love, Scrooge would rather Christmas never came around to disrupt his money-grubbing ways… until he gets a nightmarish series of wake-up calls from the spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. DTC’s much loved production captures A Christmas Carol’s enduring message of hope and redemption. With its evocative songs, sprightly dances, spectacular sets and magical stage effects it’s the perfect holiday season treat for everyone.
