About the project: A Christmas Carol is a delightfully reimagined take on Dickens’ enduring classic.

Scrooge’s story of redemption remains as powerful and uplifting as it ever was. Additional info: Rehearsal Information: Thursday, September 19, 2024. Measurements will be taken on this date. Overshadowed rehearsal times are usually M/T/Th/F evenings and Saturday mornings. Saturday, November 16 & 23, may extend longer if needed.
