Dickens' A Christmas Carol
Adapted by Jill Pinard
December 2-18
Produced by Hatbox Theatre.
In this original adaption of the holiday classic, Hatbox Theatre focuses on how the dream-like qualities of the ghost story aspect of Dickens’ work can bring about redemption. Is it “an undigested bit of beef” – a line in the original story – that leads Scrooge to have bad dreams or is he really being visited by ghosts intent on helping him redeem himself. Audience members, too, will wonder if they are dreaming when they are immersed in sound, lights and projections that bring out these eerier aspects of Scrooge’s fateful night.
Fridays & Saturdays @ 7:30pm; Sundays @ 2pm.
Approximate run time is 75-80 minutes including intermission.
