A CHRISTMAS CAROL
The Musical
Music by Alan Menken
Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Book by Mike Ockrent & Lynn Ahrens
Based on the story by Charles Dickens
Original choreography by Susan Stroman
Originally directed by Mike Ockrent
Originally presented by Radio City Entertainment
at the Theater at Madison Garden
This amateur production is presented by arrangement with Josef
Weinberger Ltd. on behalf of Music Theatre International of New York
THE SHOW, based on Charles Dickens’ classic
Victorian tale, features miserable miser SCROOGE, his
hard-up employee BOB CRATCHIT, sickly TINY TIM,
scary GHOSTS, street URCHINS and many other
colourful characters.
This new show with wonderful music should not be
confused with other musicals on the same theme. We
were only the second Scottish company to present it.
To do it justice, we assembled a stellar production team,
over 60 performers on stage, including child principals
and two companies of child performers for alternate
performances.
The show was greeted with much enthusiasm and
a wonderful review from glasgowtheatreblog.com
from Alan Menken, composer of (among others) “Little Shop of Horrors”, “Beauty and the Beast”, “Enchanted”,
and the musical “Sister Act”
“Audiences go nuts for it” Peter Hilliard, American Musical Director
