"A Christmas Carol" - the musical - LIVE at Footlighters Theater!

A Christmas Carol is a beloved holiday musical featuring music by the incredible Alan Menken, lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, and book by Mike Ockrent & Lynn Ahrens. Based on Charles Dickens\’ 1843 novella of the same name, the role of Ebeneezer Scrooge has been played on stage by a cornucopia of leading men, from Terrance Mann to Roger Daltry.   The production was adapted for television featuring Kelsey Grammer and quickly became a family favorite.  The musical features many memorable songs including “A Place Called Home,” “Link by Link” and “Mr. Fezziwig\’s Annual Christmas Ball.”

Footlighters’ outstanding cast of local performers will bring the production to life in their historic 19thC theater, located at 58 Main Avenue in the heart of Berwyn.  They will also be joining in the fun at the Annual Berwyn Christmas Tree Lighting on December 4th, so you will have the opportunity to enjoy their talents there as well.

A sensory-sensitive performance will be offered on Saturday, December 10th at 2pm.

This non-profit community theater is the oldest on the Main Line (founded in 1929) and will continue the season in 2023 with “The Last Flapper,” the much-loved “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown,” and “Disaster” (a fun-filled, “jukebox musical comedy” featuring earthquakes, tidal waves, piranhas, infernos and songs of the \’70s in a comedic homage to 1970s disaster films).

Tickets are available online at www.footlighterstheater.com and at the door.  Advance purchase is recommended to avoid disappointment.  Follow the fun on Facebook and Instagram.
