"It's the most famous holiday story ever told and for nearly two centuries, it has endured because it reminds us that even the hardest of hearts can wake up to a second chance." says director Elyse Edelman, "Beneath the ghosts and the carols, Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol is a story about someone rediscovering the parts of himself that once knew joy, connection, generosity, and love."

The production at Third Avenue Playworks is directed by Elyse Edelman with scenic design by Alex Polzin, costume design by Kärin Kopischke, lighting design by Colin Gawronskil, sound design and music by Brian Grimm, props design by Haley Anne Cranstoun, and production stage management by Kelsey Brennan York.
