A Christmas Carol
2024-12-13 19:30, 2024-12-14 19:30, 2024-12-15 15:00, 2024-12-20 19:30, 2024-12-21 19:30, 2024-12-22 15:00 (America/New_York) | Historic Ritz Theatre, 1530 Newcastle Street, Brunswick, GA, 31520, United States
Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol was first published in December 1843. 181 years later, this ghostly tale of Christmas endures – and it is still relevant; it continues to remind us of the true meaning of the holiday season. For those not familiar with the story, A Christmas Carol is the tale of the miserable and miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, who has no regard for his fellow man. A visit from his late business partner, Jacob Marley, who is “dead as a doornail”, leads to a series of visits from the Spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future, in the hopes that Scrooge will change his ways. In addition to the ghostly apparitions, the story is full of wonderful characters like Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim, Scrooge’s nephew, Fred, and the Fezziwigs, all who know that the joy of the season is to be found in their hearts and in sharing that joy with others.
This year’s production is an adaptation by Christopher Schario and features a cast of eleven actors taking on all the roles and sharing Dickens’ words in a simple setting but with all the magic that makes the story timeless. Bryan Thompson returns as miserly Ebenezer Scrooge to take us on this journey through his past, present and future. The cast also features Kaytlin Dixon, Luke Harlander, Daniel Jackson, Krysta Lee, Matthew Martin, Jeff Marks, Addie Pittman, Melissa Reese, Eli Rowell, and Danielle Thompson.
Be a part of all the magic, humor, and warm sentiments of this immortal tale as Golden Isles Arts & Humanities presents A Christmas Carol. Performances will take place December 13-15 and 20-22. Friday and Saturday performances are at 7:30 pm and Sundays are at 3 pm. Advance tickets for Members are $15/adults and $10/seniors; Nonmembers are $20/adults and $15/seniors.
