Alan Menken's A Christmas Carol - November 11 through December 4, 2022
Underwritten by Betty J. Paro
Alan Menken's "A Christmas Carol" is a spectacular adaptation of Charles Dickens's most well-known story. Ebenezer Scrooge is a prosperous curmudgeon who believes personal wealth is far more valuable than the happiness and comfort of others. With an infuriated "Bah! Humbug!" Scrooge summates his feelings of Christmas tidings and charitable giving, but he's forced to face his selfish ways when three ghosts on Christmas Eve lead him through his Past, Present and Future. Thanks to their guidance, Scrooge recognizes his faults and greets Christmas morning with a cheerful "Happy Christmas" before spending the day reconnecting and sharing love with those that mean the most to him.
For all families and ages!

Two con-men "play the palace" in this breezy adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's well-known satirical tale. Mr. Stitch and Mr. Sew wreak havoc at Wits Ends Palace when they present the Emperor with a special gift: an exquisitely beautiful "magic" suit of clothes, invisible to all but the wisest of men. THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES is a charming exploration of the dangers of vanity, with a host of hilarious characters that includes a brassy, tap-dancing bugle-playing Empress. This Prince Street Players version has delighted audiences for over 50 years.
Recommended for audiences of all ages
