An Old Town Temecula Family Favorite! It is Christmas Eve in London, England, 1850. Based on Charles Dicken’s most popular novel, this beloved tale of redemption, the damaging effects of isola-

tion, and the importance of love and compassion are displayed through Ebenezer Scrooge's transformation from a miserly, greedy, and lonely man into an empathetic and kind individual in A Christmas Carol. This story is told spectacularly by some of Broadway’s greatest composers (Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Disney's The Little Mermaid, Little Shop of Horrors, Ragtime, Seussical & Once on This Island). Join us for this festive and glorious Holiday Tradition!

Book by Lynn Ahrens & Mike Ockrent. Music and Lyrics by Alan Menken & Lynn Ahrens. Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International.
