A CHRISTMAS CAROL
A Christmas Carol
By Charles dickens, adapted by tom creamer, Directed by Jessica Thebus
November 18 – December 31 in the Albert Theatre
Opening Night is November 27, 2023
Chicago’s favorite holiday tradition for four decades.
More than 1.5 million theatergoers have attended “the crown jewel of the holiday season” (Daily Herald) since the Goodman established it as an annual offering in 1978—a time when only a handful of U.S. theaters mounted the production. Dickens’ holiday classic is the iconic tale of greedy businessman Ebenezer Scrooge, whose sizable bank account is only matched by his disdain for the holidays. One Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by four ghosts who take him on a spectacular adventure through his past, present and future, helping him rediscover the joys of life, love and friendship.
