Downtown Bozeman’s Ellen Theatre invites audiences to return for its much-loved holiday production of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Performances will begin December 9th and run through Dec. 22nd. Tickets are on sale now.
Take a magical journey to 19th Century London to meet Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and Ebenezer Scrooge – played by veteran actor and local favorite Kent Davis. Watch as Scrooge is magically haunted by Jacob Marley, and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. Will seeing these visions be enough for a misguided miser to change his ways? There’s only one way to find out.
First performed at The Ellen in 2008, this family friendly, whimsical take on the Dickens tale is sure to put all in the holiday spirit. There’s nothing quite like live theatre, and it’s sure to be a Christmas to remember with this Charles Dickens classic. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the spirit of the season and a great present for the entire family.
Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol is presented by Montana TheatreWorks, producers of Oklahoma!, Annie, Damn Yankees, White Christmas and most recently, The Sound of Music.
A note to parents: This is a faithful adaptation of the book, which includes visits from four ghosts. Although it is all make-believe, some young children may be frightened by the darker, spooky and supernatural aspects of this play.
Numerous performances of A Christmas Carol will be held Dec. 9th–22nd with evening shows and weekend matinees. Tickets to this holiday production range $20.50 to $38.50.
Wine, beer and concessions will be sold in the lobby one hour before each event. Ticketing and further information about these performances and upcoming events is available at www.theellentheatre.org. For additional inquiries, call the box office at (406) 585-5885. •
