Storytime Theater presents an inclusive interpretation of Charles Dickens' beloved classic, A Christmas Carol. Christmas Eve provides a backdrop to explore the arrival of four spirits sent from beyond to teach a miserly Scrooge about the interconnectedness of people and the importance of kindness, compassion, and community.
You need not celebrate the Christmas holiday to enjoy this timeless story of sharing and of power of an individual to impact the world.
A Christmas Carol will be performed on Friday, Dec. 13 at 10:30 a.m. at the Central Library. This free performance is suitable for kids in grades kindergarten through grade 5. No tickets or reservations are necessary.
