Cast Set for EBENEZER SCROOGE'S BIG SAN DIEGO CHRISTMAS SHOW at The Old Globe

The Old Globe has revealed the full cast and creative team for Ebenezer Scrooge’s BIG San Diego Christmas Show. The Scrooge parody, set in San Diego, is based on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, and is written by Gordon Greenberg (Globe’s Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors, Crime and Punishment: A Comedy and The Heart of Rock & Roll) and Steve Rosen (Globe’s Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors; Crime and Punishment, A Comedy; The Other Josh Cohen) and directed by Greenberg.

The six-week limited engagement plays at the Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, part of the Globe’s Conrad Prebys Theatre Center, from November 21 to December 28, with the official opening night on Tuesday, November 25. 

San Diego has another show in its Christmas stocking with this fast, funny, and highly theatrical reimagining of one of the most beloved holiday stories ever told. All the traditional elements of Dickens’s A Christmas Carol are intact—including the iconic ghosts of Christmases Past, Present, and Future—but with a comic local twist. Audiences of all ages will cheer Ebenezer Scrooge’s rediscovery of the Christmas spirit in this riotous Dickens mash-up filled with music and laughter—all set in “wintery” San Diego.

The cast for Ebenezer Scrooge’s BIG San Diego Christmas Show includes James Joseph O’Neil as Actor 5 (Ebenezer Scrooge), Josh Breckenridge as Actor 4 (Bob Cratchit, Jacob Marley, Charles, Mr. Fezzi, etc.), Will Carlyon as Actor 1 (Fred, Young Scrooge, Medium Scrooge, Tiny Tim, etc.), Susana Cordón as Actor 2 (Prudence Saint, Lavinia, Ghost of Christmas Present, Archibald, etc.), and Jacque Wilke as Actor 3 (Gertrude Saint, Ghost of Christmas Past, Mrs. Cratchit, Jennie, etc.).
