Special Kinderconcert: A Christmas Carol at National Arts Centre

Mean and ill-tempered old miser Ebenezer Scrooge refuses to be good, even on Christmas Day. Ghosts come to haunt him, urging him to change his ways and become generous. In this loose adaptation of the English author’s classic, Dickens himself has fun portraying the character of Scrooge, while his musician friends portray the ghosts, spirit-rappers, and other colourful characters in the story… while merrily singing and playing their instruments! Mocking laughter and little shivers blow across the stage like a strong wind; folly, fun, and apparitions flutter down like the snows of yesteryear. The children, called on to take part, will also have to try to convince old Scrooge to become generous!
