It wouldn’t be the holidays without Dickens’ A Christmas Carol at VSC.
The annual tradition returns to the Wells Theatre this holiday season on December 9. Over 50,000 patrons have attended this heartwarming production in the last decade to see the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future visit Ebenezer Scrooge and remind us all about hope, redemption, and love.

Tickets for each performance start at $25 for children under 12. The best seats in the theatre are available for $79 with discounts for groups, students, and the military. Tickets are available at vastage.org.
