Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story

About the Show:

Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story, s a fresh take on the holiday classic as a perfect blend of holiday cheer and spine-tingling excitement that will resonate with audiences of all ages.

Actors whimsically transform from narrators into characters, and beloved carols are sung to alternately joyful and sinister effect.
