A Christmas Carol

The Crossroads Church Christmas production this year will be called "A Christmas Carol." We decided to share our version of the classic tale in conjunction with the release of the blockbuster movie starring Jim Carrey. Ours is a modern retelling of the story. It features Carol Ebenezer - a middle-age 'Devil Wears Prada' type successful business woman who hates Christmas.
In Christmas past, little Carol was named for her mother's favorite holiday hymns that personify the spirit of the season, but a childhood tragedy leaves Carol bitter and mean in Christmas present, closed to any hint of celebrating the holiday and despised by her employees. A persistent witness from her assistant, Ms. Cratchit and an insightful look into Christmas future gives Christmas Carol an opportunity to reclaim her song!
We've written an all-original score and the production will be as close to a Broadway musical as anything we've ever attempted. I think it's going to be incredible!
