Adapted from the classic Charles Dickens’ novel, this heartwarming Christmas tale finds Tiny Tim hatching a plan to get his father home for Christmas day. With the help of some kindly sellers at the market and his friend Charlotte, Tiny Tim stages a spectacle filled with ghosts and Christmas cheer to convince Scrooge to give his father the day off. It all seems to be going according to plan until a little bit of real Christmas magic catches everyone by surprise.
Come early on Sunday and meet Santa.
Santa Claus will be on site for a pre-show treat and pictures in the Marie Damrell Gallo Grand Lobby on Sunday, Dec. 9 at 2 pm. Open to all Tiny Tim’s Christmas Carol ticket holders.
The play is by Ken Ludwig and Jack Ludwig and directed by Kimberly Ogden.
