About A Christmas Carol
This five-time Tony Award-winning New York Times Critic’s Pick is bringing joy off Broadway through January 4 only. Three visionary artists — playwright Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), set and costume designer Rob Howell (The Ferryman) and director Matthew Warchus (Matilda) — offer a magical interpretation of Charles Dickens’ beloved story. The Hollywood Reporter raves, “It’s an enchanting spectacle designed to enrapture all ages with wonder and delight.”
This “vibrant, compassionate and timely” (Deadline) production welcomes theatregoers of all ages into an immersive experience that’s brimming with Christmas spirit. It features dazzling staging, moving storytelling and original music alongside 12 cherished Christmas carols, including “Joy to the World,” “Silent Night” and “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear,” which earned composer/arranger Christopher Nightingale the Tony Award for Best Original Score. Don’t miss your chance to be part of a show that’s “so infectious, you’ll leave the theater with a heart full of joy and light” (Entertainment Weekly).
A Christmas Carol is proudly presented by Kenneth C. Griffin and Griffin Catalyst.
