About the Show
November 11 - December 30, 2023
by CHARLES DICKENS; adapted by LAVINA JADHWANI; directed by ADDIE GORLIN-HAN based on the original direction by JOSEPH HAJ
A miserly and miserable man, Ebenezer Scrooge greets each Christmas with “Bah! Humbug!” until he is visited one Christmas Eve by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Future. In Charles Dickens’ beloved classic, the three spirits show Scrooge happy memories from his past, difficult realities from the present and a grim future should he continue his closed-hearted ways. Throughout his journey, Scrooge is forced to reckon with the man he has become and contemplate the man he could be — but only if his restless night leads to a change of heart by morning.
A complimentary sensory tour takes place before audio-described Saturday matinees at 10:30 a.m., allowing patrons to explore the stage, costumes and props. Reservations are not required. Report to the 4th floor access desk.
