Charles Dickens’ A CHRISTMAS CAROL at Walnut Street Theater

December 6, 2024 - December 21, 2024

On one remarkable Christmas Eve, Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by three ghosts who show him the past, present—and possible future. You and your loved ones are in for a classic holiday treat with this special hour-long musical adaptation for kids that uses traditional songs to highlight Dickens’ magical story. Deck the halls as the holiday spirits travel beyond the footlights, right into your very own heart.

New for this Season: Wider and more comfortable seating throughout the theatre, with increased legroom in the orchestra and additional railing in the mezzanine.

Showtimes vary, check website for ticket info
