Directed and adapted by Artistic Director Tim Carroll, this new version of the Dickens holiday classic is brought to life through puppetry, music, dance and a dash of theatre magic.
“We’re thrilled that so many of you have has chosen to celebrate the holidays with us. We can’t wait to show you what we’ve been cooking up!” says Tim Carroll, Artistic Director.
