Utah premier of a new holiday play based on the classic “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens. “…Nothing less than an anthem to human nature, to imagination, and to the wonder of a compelling story told by a wondrous storyteller…among the best evenings of the theatrical year…As the tale slips down the throat like a hot chocolate, it also reveals new truths about the human condition…, Marley becomes a tortured but poignant and ultimately redeemed soul who personally stage-manages Scrooge’s reformation and finds his own redemption therein…an inspired and moving story that makes all that old stuff about ghosts and graves seem both immediate and revelatory…a splendid and invigorating evening!” —Chicago Tribune. “…[Blends] a Dickens sensibility with a taste for fairy tales and contemporary wit…thoroughly charming—a holiday treat…” —Herald (Chicago). “…Superbly written, marvelously performed…inspired writing…funny, moving, and hypnotic throughout…” —Chicago Sun-Times. “Delectably zany…inspired theatre…gives the audience cause to ache, and to laugh, and in the end, to exalt.” —Citybeat. “Of all the holiday shows dotting the theatrical landscape, none shines brighter than JACOB MARLEY’S CHRISTMAS CAROL.” —The Life. “
