'A CHRISTMAS CAROL' Opens at Guthrie Theater 11/21

A Christmas Carol
by Charles Dickens
adapted by Barbara Field
directed by Gary Gisselman

Inspired by Charles Dickens' immortal story, this perennial holiday production returns for its 34th year at the Guthrie. Ebenezer Scrooge (Raye Birk) greets each Christmas with his well-known "bah humbug," until one Christmas Eve he learns that his stinginess and uncaring attitude will doom him to walk the earth after death wearing a heave chain created by his selfish ways. The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come visit Scrooge during a restless night, showing him happy memories from his past, cruel realities from the present and the desolate future should he continue his cantankerous ways.
