This adaptation of A Christmas Carol by Stephen Temperley was crafted specifically for Centenary Stage Company's Sitnik Theatre and features Musical Direction and Original Music by Kevin Lynch. Probably the most popular piece of fiction that Charles Dickens ever wrote, A Christmas Carol, was published in 1843. Charles Dickens, through the voice of Scrooge, continues to urge us to honor Christmas in our hearts and try to keep it all year round. This adaptation is not a musical, but rather a play with musical elements.

The December 11 performance will also feature a pre-show Christmas Cheer Cabaret by the Centenary University Theatre Department's Honor Society, Alpha Psi Omega. This cabaret is free to attend and will begin at 6:00 pm in the lobby of the Lackland Performing Arts Center before the 8:00 pm performance of A Christmas Carol. For more information go to centenarystageco.org or call the box office at (908) 979-0900.
