The Theatre Company's production holds true to all the traditions. Marley is scary and menacing. There is singing and dancing as those around Scrooge make merry without him. And Scrooge's transformation is inspiring.
Sam Gregory plays "Ebenezer Scrooge", and Lucas Turner is "Tiny Tim". This holiday tradition will be going on haitus as The Stage Theatre is renovated.
"A Christmas Carol" runs through December 24th at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts.
