About the event

Brimming with power, love, and wonder,MERRY CHRISTMAS, UNCLE SCROOGE! is a Broadway musical based on "A Christmas Carol", the beloved story by Charles Dickens.

This new telling rediscovers the heart of the original work. Where past adaptations promoted seasonal sentiment or preached against greed, Merry Christmas, Uncle Scrooge! unearths Dickens's true message: that a society is judged by its treatment of children, especially the poor and the handicapped. In a world of "ragged" schools, child labor, and the poorhouse, Dickens penned a tale that would not only resurrect Christmas, but redeem children.

That message still challenges the modern world. The breathtaking music of Merry Christmas, Uncle Scrooge!, by the award-winning composers Bill & Robin Wolaver, pulses with a truth that can't be ignored: that the Christ Child came for us, and that we must be Christ to the children of the world.
