The flip side of a classic Christmas tale, Jacob Marley's story begins in the afterlife where his business partner Scrooge once again determines his future. Along with a netherworld sprite and 16 other characters, Marley is brought to life with humor and heartfelt emotion. This irreverent, funny, and ultimately, deeply moving story retells Dickens' classic with warmth and infectious zest. This thrilling performance is sure to become a holiday classic for generations to come!The Chicago Herald says it blends “a Dickens sensibility with a taste for fairy tales and contemporary wit,” and Chicago’s Citybeat calls it “delectably zany…inspired theatre, that gives the audience cause to ache, and to laugh, and in the end, to exult.”
