A Christmas Carol

Seven Christmases have passed since the death of Ebenezer Scrooge's only friend, business partner Jacob Marley.

Celebrate the joy and redemption of the holiday season as Scrooge undergoes a miraculous Christmas Eve transformation after viewing with new eyes his past, his present, and the possibilities for his future in this classic holiday tale.
