Hershey Area Playhouse presents the Charles Dickens' classic, A Christmas Carol tonight, December 4-7, 11-14, 2014. Performances begin at 7:30 p.m. Thursday-Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sundays.

A Christmas Carol takes a ghostly holiday stroll through Christmas past, present and future in this story of Christmas redemption featuring the beloved characters of Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and Scrooge.

The talented and versatile performing ensemble is led by John Messmer as Ebenezer Scrooge, John Mallonee as Bob Cratchit, and Matthew Milunic as Tiny Tim. The performance also features Keith Alcorn, Rob Allison, Laura Birkin, Dylan Byrd, Mark Cuddy, Chloe Dougherty, Maura Elizabeth, Cerena Gilman, Renee Howard, Lorie Kimmel, Maddi King, Samantha Koegler, Maggie Lane, Sam McQuillen, Paul Michel, Grace Miller, Hillary Muelleck, Jayme Paluskievicz, Madison Phelps, Justin Riley, Megan Schreiber, Levi Snyder, Bridget Still, Christiana Varner, Ed Varner, Sean Varner, Nick Webb, Brady Zimmerman and Grant Zimmerman.

Director Matthew Ford comments on the show, "Our production of A Christmas Carol is seeking to bring the well-known, and much beloved, characters of this classic tale to life in a manner that takes us a step outside our comfort zone. Dickens himself called the tale "A Ghost Story of Christmas" and our goal is to let the phantasmagoric out to play with the yuletide cheer and tell the old tale in a way that brings new surprises."

Performances will be held at the Hershey Area Playhouse: 830 Cherry Drive, Hershey, PA 17033. Tickets can be purchased by phone at 717.533.8525 or online at www.HersheyAreaPlayhouse.com.
