Mr. Scrooge's Christmas
Author(s):
Thomas Hischak
Emphasizing the ghost story aspect of "A Christmas Carol," the play is narrated by Jacob Marley who, as he tells the audience, has been dead for seven years, but now returns to Earth to try and reform his ex-partner, Ebenezer Scrooge. The miserly Scrooge is seen frowning at carolers, chasing away charity collectors, and making life miserable for his clerk, Bob Cratchit. But Marley appears to Scrooge on Christmas Eve and sends three spirits: Christmas Past, Present and Future. Each spirit reveals a different aspect of Christmas and in the end, old Scrooge is changed and celebrates Christmas dinner with the Cratchit family. (A different adaptation of this story is available as a musical. A sequel to this story is available.)
