Aurora Theatre's A CHRISTMAS CAROL Begins 11/27

Create warm memories this winter with the return of Aurora Theatre's holiday classic, Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, playing November 27-December 20! The timeless tale of redemption unfolds as the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge (Anthony Rodriguez) departs on an unforgettable journey of transformation through Christmas past, present and future. As Scrooge attempts to open his heart and mind to the true meaning of the holiday, audiences are invited to revisit the splendor of what makes this one of the greatest Christmas stories of all time!

"The story's numerous adaptations have been performed thousands of times each holiday season, relentlessly stirring the hearts of people around the globe," says Tony Brown, Director. "Our one-man adaption is simple, yet it masters the original brilliance of storytelling and captures the true power of redemption and the spirit of giving."

Set in the late 1800s on a cold, dark Christmas Eve in London, Aurora's intimate Studio transports audiences into the home of the troubled and resentful Scrooge. With a heart that's been hardened throughout the years, Scrooge is visited by three ghosts, each with a specific story and lesson to share. As he travels through the spirit world, he's forced to make certain choices about his life, including whether or not to embrace the joy of Christmas. Through behavior and voice alone, Rodriguez's spirited solo performance brings the characters of Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Jacob Marley and the remarkable ghosts to life before audience's eyes!

Adapted and directed by Tony Brown, the tale is brought from the page to the stage by the design team of Britt Ramroop (set), James M. Helms (lights), Daniel Terry (sound/technical director), Alan Yeong (costumes) and Sarah Thomson (scenic artist).

A tradition fit for the entire family, Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol is presented November 27-December 20. Tickets range from $20-$30 and can be purchased online at tickets.auroratheatre.com.
