About the Show
By Mark Brown. Directed by Janet Clark. The continuation of Dickens's Christmas story sees Scrooge one year after he learned the lesson of goodwill to all. Now the setting is a court of law, where he has sued the ghosts for kidnapping, breaking and entering, trespassing, stalking and emotional distress. This is a family comedy which ends with an ingenious moral twist. The action takes place in a London courtroom on Christmas Eve 1844.
