A Christmas Carol
Members/Group Pre-Sale: August 6, 2012, at 10 a.m.
Public Sale: August 20, 2012, at 10 a.m.
by Charles Dickens
adapted by Michael Wilson
directed by Michael Baron
November 16-December 30, 2012
A must-see holiday tradition!
Join the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future as they lead the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge on a journey of transformation and redemption. Originally conceived by Michael Baron, this music-infused production captures the magic and joy of Dickens’s Yuletide classic. Acclaimed Washington stage actor Edward Gero returns to play Scrooge.
The Washington Post proclaims “musically high-spirited” and “infectiously jolly.”
Recommended for ages 5 and up. Performance is two hours (including a 15-minute intermission). Dates and actors subject to change.
