'A Christmas Carol' coming to Sussex

SUSSEX BOROUGH — Broadway heavy hitters, Alan Menken (Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Disney’s The Little Mermaid, Little Shop of Horrors) and Lynn Ahrens (Ragtime, Seussical, Once on This Island), breathe fantastic new life into the classic tale of A Christmas Carol.
Ebenezer Scrooge is a prosperous curmudgeon who believes that 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. A Christmas Carol the Musical is a spectacular adaptation of Charles Dickens' most well-known story.
Performances are December 7 thru December 16 with Friday and Saturday shows beginning at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees beginning at 2 p.m. Cornerstone Playhouse is located 74 Main Street, Sussex Borough. All seats are reserved and are $22 each in advance and $24.50 at the door.
