As Ebenezer Scrooge wakes up the morning before Christmas, he has no idea he is being watched by an old friend with the help of three ghostly companions. Today will be Scrooge's final test before he gets the visit of his life and finds out the true meaning of Christmas.

A CHRISTMAS CAROL: THE MUSICAL GHOST STORY is a brand new musical adaptation that adds a modern touch to the well-known story. Dickens' traditional characters, exciting new songs, and some frightful ghosts make this version a fun and surprising retelling of the famous Holiday "Ghost Story!"

When Charles Dickens wrote A CHRISTMAS CAROL in 1843, he was telling his story to a society that was not quite as desensitized as today's world has become. Emotions were simpler and easier to evoke. Joel Mercier's adaptation has focused on how to make a modern audience feel the emotions in today's society that Dickens originally intended in 1843. Examples include the addition of the Prologue in which the audience sees Marley's fate revealed; Tiny Tim's music box symbolizing the love of a family with nothing but each other; The alter egos of the three spirits who in the beginning attempt to give Scrooge one last chance; and most importantly, the humanization of Ebenezer Scrooge, portraying him as a relatable "every man" who has lost his way, not unlike someone in today's society.
