"A Christmas Carol" Enters Final Weekend At Centenary Stage

originally published: 12/06/2021

(HACKETTSTOWN, NJ) -- Centenary Stage Company’s production of A Christmas Carol adapted by Stephen Temperley is entering its final weekend of shows. These final performances will be on Thursday, December 9 at 7:30pm; Friday, December 19 at 8:00pm; Saturday, December 11 at 8:00pm; and Sunday, December 12 at 2:00pm. . The Centenary University Theatre Department’s Honor Society, Alpha Psi Omega, will also be performing a Christmas Cheer Cabaret in the lobby of the Sitnik Theatre on Saturday, December 11 at 6:00pm. The cabaret is free to attend.  

This adaptation of A Christmas Carol by Stephen Temperley was crafted specifically for Centenary Stage Company’s Sitnik Theatre and features Musical Direction and Original Music by Kevin Lynch. Probably the most popular piece of fiction that Charles Dickens ever wrote, A Christmas Carol, was published in 1843.  Charles Dickens, through the voice of Scrooge, continues to urge us to honor Christmas in our hearts and try to keep it all year round. This adaptation is not a musical, but rather a play with musical elements.  

Tickets range from $25.00 – 29.50 with discounts available for seniors, students, children 12 and younger, as well as Thursday evening performances.
