A CONNECTICUT CHRISTMAS CAROL With new surprises for 2018!

Nov. 30 - Dec. 30 at The Terris Theater, Chester, CT

Some of the most beloved storytellers in Connecticut history come alive for a yuletide gathering you won't forget. Famed actor and local legend William Gillette leaves his castle on the Connecticut River to adapt Dickens' holiday classic. Local heroes Mark Twain, P.T. Barnum and more make spirited appearances opposite Gillette's Scrooge in a highly theatrical twist on a family favorite. Custom-made for Goodspeed with all-original music, here's a tuneful, heartfelt confection spiced with even more Nutmeg State flavor to sweeten your season.

Book by L J Fecho | Music and Lyrics by Michael O'Flaherty | Choreographed by Lisa Shriver | Directed by Hunter Foster
