The Story:
This faithful adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic tale has been performed several times over the years by Evergreen. Stingy, miser Ebenezer Scrooge is taken on a transformative journey when he is visited by three spirits. The ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future try to teach Scrooge the importance of compassion and generosity. But will Scrooge learn to be a kinder, more caring person before it is too late and his fate is sealed?
