"Part of Trinity Rep's mission is to make theater accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or ability," says Curt Columbus, The Richard L. Bready Artistic Director. "A Christmas Carol tells the story of a man who has closed himself off to the world, and who finds that it opens back up to him when he learns the importance of empathy and understanding. This lesson remains timely, year after year, and its meaning is particularly important to us as we undertake this initiative. We are thrilled to make this special show a reality for more local families this holiday season. "

Trinity Rep's A Christmas Carol is presented by Cardi's Furniture along with supporting sponsor Amica Insurance. Trinity Rep's 51st season is sponsored by NBC 10, with supporting sponsors Cox Media, Rhode Island Monthly and RISCA.
