 | A Christmas Carol - Opening Night
7:00 PM
If you think A Christmas Carol is an old chestnut…if you think audiences can’t be thrilled anew by the greatest of all ghost stories…think again. In this adaptation by The Foothill Theatre Company and Philip C. Sneed, the story’s the thing that makes Scrooge, Tiny Tim, Bob Cratchit and the Spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future come alive. It’s a tale of how isolation and self-interest withers the soul—a trajectory that can be reversed and redeemed only by embracing and contributing to the greater good.
