Alley Theatre
Houston’s Holiday Favorite
A Christmas Carol – A Ghost Story of Christmas
By Charles Dickens
Adapted and Originally Directed by Michael Wilson
Directed by James Black
Hubbard Stage
November 21 through December 28, 2008

Houston’s seasonal favorite that the Houston Press said, “…..has spectacular London sets …the inimitable Dickens tale -- spiced with the usual fog and an unusual twist on the ghosts past present and future.” A Christmas Carol - A Ghost Story of Christmas returns this year with a re-telling of Charles Dickens’ classic story, that follows Ebenezer Scrooge’s journey with the three ghosts that visit him on Christmas Eve.  A Christmas Carol instills a powerful message about redemption and the spirit of the holiday season.  The dazzling production is created by Tony Award-winning scenic designer Tony Straiges (Alley's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?), costumes by Alejo Vietti (Alley's The Scene, Tryst, Orson’s Shadow), lighting by Rui Rita (Alley's To Kill a Mockingbird, Bad Dates), and original music by John Gromada (Alley's Subject to Fits, The Pillowman).
