COD College Theater: “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens, adapted by William J. Norris

Presented by McAninch Arts Center at McAninch Arts Center at College of DuPage

A mean-spirited old man, a poor but optimistic clerk and three visiting ghosts join forces to take audiences on a magical journey and show the true meaning of the holiday season. Cast members from Chicago area communities are featured in this 70-minute version of a heartwarming classic Christmas story that is perfect for all ages. This adaptation of "A Christmas Carol" was written by Norris specifically for the students at College of DuPage and performed for the first time in 2004. The 2020 production is being filmed and presented on Zoom.  Show is available on demand through Jan. 3.

“COD College Theater has a long history of staging Norris’ wonderful adaptation of Dickens’ classic story, but this is the first-time audiences will be able to watch our production from their own living room,” says director Barrett. “The production will still feature beautiful period costumes and wonderful special effects and is still sure to warm hearts as it chronicles Scrooge’s transformation from a lonely, cold-hearted soul into a man filled with the joy of the holiday and appreciation of life’s opportunity for change.”

Admission Info
