Cortland Repertory Theatre Youth Programs presents THE STORY OF EBENEZER SCROOGE for Kids!

Cortland Repertory Theatre Youth Programs (CRTYP) invites children of all ages to celebrate the holiday season with a special "one performance only" of THE STORY OF EBENEZER SCROOGE on Sunday, December 10 at 2:00 PM. This production, aimed primarily for children but fun for the whole family, will be held at CRT Downtown, 24 Port Watson Street in historic downtown Cortland. Admission is $7.00 per person. The Traveling Lantern Theatre Company will perform this funny and interactive interpretation of the popular Christmas story. Charles Dickens' classic tale is re-imagined with just two actors and participation by the children in the audience.

Ebenezer Scrooge is a nasty, mean and snarling old geezer, with no care for anything other than his money. His only friend visits him as a ghost, starting him on a journey that melts his icy heart and teaches him the joys of caring for others. Seating will be "picnic style" for kids on squares of carpet, with chair seating for adults, while the actors performing in and around the audience. This new and imaginative retelling of the Dickens story is a wonderful way to deliver the true holiday spirit message!

Tickets are available for purchase online at www.cortlandrep.org, by calling 800-427-6160 or by visiting CRT Downtown during business hours: Monday - Friday from 9:00 - 5:00. Tickets will also be available the day of performance starting at noon.
