A Dickens' Christmas Carol . . . a one man show

written by Charles Dickens
edited & adapted for the stage by Sherrionne Brown and Phil Gallagher
directed by Sherrionne Brown
stage managed by
Performance Dates: Dec 8 - 17, 2023
Fri & Sat at 8pm; Sun at 2pm

Join us for limited engagement of Charles Dickens' A CHRISTMAS CAROL - in the style that Dickens himself performed the work, when he toured the United States in the 1860s.

“Bah! Humbug!”
Is there a more famous response to being wished “Merry Christmas!”?

Scrooge, Tiny Tim, the trio of Christmas ghosts, and the story of what happens when a bitter old man is given one last chance at redemption, are as well-known as any of Dickens’ characters. They’ve been portrayed in films and on TV around the world and now you can meet them all, live on stage in Spotlighters’ captivating, one-man adaptation.

Using only Dickens’ inimitable language, Phil Gallagher’s performance will thrill and chill audiences of all ages. With minimal props and costume, Gallagher portrays all these much-loved characters and breathes new life into a story that is as moving, relevant, and redemptive as it was when first written over 170 years ago.

There is no official rating system for live theatre.
We encourage you to use your judgment based on your child's age and maturity level.
