A holiday favorite for the entire family, SCROOGE The Musical is a lively and charming stage adaptation of the hit movie musical by Leslie Bricusse (Doctor Doolittle, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Victor/Victoria, Jekyll and Hyde) which starred Albert Finney. Full of hummable, show-stopping tunes including the Oscar-nominated hit "Thank You Very Much!", SCROOGE The Musical follows the fateful night in which Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet To Come. SCROOGE The Musical is a holiday classic the whole family can enjoy together.

SCROOGE The Musical is directed and choreographed by Scott Wright, who has received regional acclaim and honors including Altar Boys (2007 Denver Post Ovation Award Nomination for Best Choreography), Swing! (2008 Best Choreography Award, Greeley Tribune "Best Performance 2008"), Cats (2008 Denver Post Ovation Nomination for Best Revival of a Musical), and Cats (2004 Denver Post Ovation Winner for Best Choreography).

In the title role, the Candlelight is pleased to welcome back Colorado based actor, Marcus Waterman. Marcus directed the Candlelight's inaugural production of The Music Man and most recently appeared at the Curious Theatre Company as Ray in Yankee Tavern. Along with Curious Theatre Company, he has appeared in plays and musicals at the Denver Center Theater Company, The Arvada Center, Country Dinner Playhouse, Theatre Aspen, The Historic Elitch Theatre, and as Guest Artist at the University of Denver and the University of Northern Colorado.
