The true spirit of Christmas lives in this heartwarming production of Charles Dickens’ holiday classic. Audiences, young and old, will leave the theater enchanted by this timeless tale of Ebenezer Scrooge’s miraculous redemption. Guided by the ghosts of Jacob Marley and Christmas Past, Present and Future, the world’s most famous miser undergoes a magical, stirring transformation into a marvelous man of overflowing love, kindness and generosity.
CMI Entertainment, in collaboration with Entertainment Central Productions Orlando, is proud to present this beloved story in a version that will move every theatergoer with the wonder of its stirring message of goodwill and holiday hope. Their National Tour features a faithful, fun-filled homage to Dickens’ original vision. Brilliantly illuminated projections bathe the period-evocative set pieces with the misty, cobblestoned atmosphere of old London town. Beautifully sung choral arrangements of everyone’s best-loved Christmas carols are woven through the two hours of this joyous theatrical journey. The heartfelt acting talent of a nationally selected cast (dressed in dazzling costumes) will bring characters like Mister Fezziwig, Bob Cratchit and Tiny Tim to life in charming, memorable performances. Otherworldly light and sound effects, along with eerie, larger-than-life puppets, accentuate this dreamlike, haunting ghost story.
A Christmas Carol was Charles Dickens’ gift to a weary world that had almost forgotten the values of goodness and sharing. More than a play, this presentation reminds family members (children, parents and grandparents) that there is a special time of every year when people embrace the belief that it is better to give than to receive and that kindness is contagious. The fantastic Christmas Eve of Ebenezer Scrooge is a rollicking roller coaster ride of emotions. Often hilarious, sometimes spooky, you will witness the thrilling conversion of a humbug into a hugger! This crowd-pleasing show embodies the best of the holiday spirit and will bring laughter, a few tears and, mostly, joy to all who partake in its warm glow. We say, “Long live Christmas!”
