Theatre IV's Musical Version of A CHRISTMAS CAROL Coming to The Alden, 12/12
An exciting new twist on an old favorite, Theatre IV's musical version of "A Christmas Carol" is coming to The Alden in McLean. Perhaps the best loved holiday story of all time, Theatre IV's adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic is particularly suited to children. Performances are at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 12. Tickets are $15, $10 for McLean Community Center district residents. The Alden is located inside the center, at 1234 Ingleside Ave.
The production features a magnificent score by Jule Styne, the composer of Broadway's immortal "Peter Pan," "Gypsy" and "Funny Girl." All the joy, sentiment and meaning are here, without being too frightening for young audiences. This production is suitable for children ages 5 or older.
"A Christmas Carol is" a heartwarming story of the transformation of Ebenezer Scrooge from a greedy, heartless miser to a generous, loving man. When the play opens, Scrooge is in his counting house in London. He is a "squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner!" Three ghostly visits-from the ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Future-leave an indelible impression on Ebenezer. Filled with love and the true spirit of the Christmas season, he begins to change his selfish ways and open his heart to those around him. Delight in this classic tale of Ebenezer, the ghosts, Bob Cratchet and Tiny Tim. Theatre IV brings them all to life on stage in this lively and heartwarming musical performance.
