Come share the magic of this wonderful musical adaptation of everyone’s favorite Christmas classic!  Bill Francoeur’s original music beautifully accompanies this uplifting retelling, enriched with ample female roles.  ’Bah, Humbug!’ Ebenezer sings, dooming himself to visits from three Christmas spirits.  With the first ghost, he sees his sister Fanny as they sing ’One Last Christmas.’ Next, Scrooge is taken to the home of his employee, Beth Cratchit, where Tiny Tim sings ’God Bless Us, Everyone.’ Finally, Scrooge watches as the entire town celebrates with ’He’s Dead and Buried!’ Ebenezer’s revelation that ’Life Was Meant to Live’ brings a heart-warming conclusion to Dickens’s beloved tale.  If desired, female roles can easily revert to traditional male roles.

Hear what directors and critics are saying:

Great musical and flexible cast for middle school students.


Well written, great music (I love Bill Francoeur), and lots of substantial characters.


A wonderful adaptation of the classic tale of Scrooge.  The music is lively, fairly easy to learn, and the students love it! Danny Hobson, Hellstern Middle School, Springdale, AR


We did it with all children (age range 7 - 13).  They did an absolutely fabulous job and it really put everyone in the Christmas spirit!
