A Christmas Carol at The Classic Theatre San Antonio

Feature: San Antonio Theatre Gets In The Holiday Spirit  ImageThe Classic Theatre San Antonio has a new take on the classic story, A Christmas Carol. Charles Dickens' 1867 American Reading Tour is off to a rough start. Due to an inexplicable loss of his luggage, he regretfully announces that he will be unable to read from his beloved classic, A Christmas Carol. All is not lost, however; Dickens delivers what he promised by performing from memory the magical story of Ebenezer Scrooge's journey from miserliness to redemption with warmth and humor. This one-man play is based on the condensed version Dickens himself used on his historic reading tours of the United States.

What if your four-year-old tells you they no longer believe in Santa - and then shows you the math?
