The Walnut Street Theatre production Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol is a Philadelphia tradition! The holiday magic begins when a troupe of actors appear at the historic Walnut Street Theatre to set up and perform the heartwarming tale of Ebenezer Scrooge. We all know this grumpy old miser's response to holiday cheer is "Bah, Humbug." Scrooge is a bitter old man who can no longer feel joy or affection, even for his family. But on one remarkable Christmas Eve, he is visited by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future. With their help, can Scrooge change his ways? You and your favorite kids are in for a treat with a special hour-long adaptation which uses original and traditional songs to highlight Dickens' powerful story. Deck the halls as our holiday spirits travel beyond the footlights, right into your very own heart.
Loved showing our visitors from Argentina and Namibia this historic theater. The play was well done. Surprised by the beauty of the children’s singing voices and acting skills. Scrooge was perfect.
Excellent costumes and songs/music. The performers of all ages were great. Tiny Tim was perfect.
The play was wonderful! The enthusiasm and talent displayed was top notch. Cudos to the Walnut Street Theater company!
Good play good acting. The kids enjoyed it for their first play
Walnut Street Theater's version of A Christmas Carol was a fun performance of one my favorite Christmas stories by Charles Dickens. I feel the production could have depicted a bit more detail with the ghost of the Christmas present than they did; however I enjoyed the acting but felt it was a little too short of a performance. All in all I found it an enjoyable experience. Thank you to the Walnut for showing this because in 2022 they did not have this performance.
I hated buying the tickets it was a horrific experience
Was an awesome the show was well done lot's of fun my grandson loved the production
The children’s show and actors were great Ticket master was Scrooge. I ended up paying $68.00 for $17.00 tickets. REALLY ? You people are greedy and should be regulated
We thoroughly enjoyed the Christmas Carol at Walnut St theater. The costumes were fabulous. The music was beautiful, but the inclusion of Christmas carols was what warmed my soul. This story changed England into a city that took care of its poor and destitute. It had that much of an effect on the people then, and it had that much effect on us too. Many thanks to the sponsors of this classic story for all ages.
The entire show was amazing with a talented cast. Overall, it was exactly what I expect from the theater. Just wish it was longer!
