Dec 13 Saturday
Celebrate the spirit of the holiday season with A Christmas Carol, presented by Maryland Ensemble Theatre. This beloved stage adaptation of Charles Dickens’ timeless classic brings to life the unforgettable tale of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly man whose cold heart is transformed through a powerful journey of redemption.
On one fateful Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by three mysterious spirits—the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future—who guide him through prominent moments of his life, reveal the consequences of his actions, and offer him a chance to change his ways. Along the way, memorable characters including the cheerful and kind-hearted Bob Cratchit and his beloved son Tiny Tim, whose moving words, “God bless us, every one,” capture the story’s enduring message.
