More information about A Christmas Carol
The ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future are visiting Broadway for a limited eight-week engagement of the holiday classic “A Christmas Carol.”Adapted by Tony Award-winning “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” writer Jack Thorne and directed by Tony Award winner Matthew Warchus (“Matilda,” “Groundhog Day”), the acclaimed production comes to New York City after two consecutive years at London’s Old Vic.
“House of Cards” actor Campbell Scott stars as Ebenezer Scrooge — with theater vets LaChanze and Andrea Martin as the Ghost of Christmas Present and the Ghost of Christmas Past, respectively — in the timeless Charles Dickens tale, about a mean-spirited miser who is forced to learn the true meaning of Christmas. Featuring a dozen holiday carols, including “Joy to the World,” “Silent Night,” and “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear,” the immersive new theatrical experience haunts Broadway until the first week of the New Year.
What to watch for
Jack Thorne’s “A Christmas Carol” adaptation will simultaneously play London’s Old Vic, starring Paterson Joseph, where it returns for a third year this holiday season.
Campbell Scott’s father is George C. Scott, who played Ebenezer Scrooge in Clive Donner’s 1984 film “A Christmas Carol” and was Emmy-nominated for his performance.
The original Charles Dickens novel was published on Dec. 17, 1843, and sold out in three days.
Dickens was 31 when he wrote “A Christmas Carol,” and he finished the story in a mere six weeks.
Six weeks after “A Christmas Carol” was published, the story was adapted by Edward Stirling for the London stage.
