(WILLIAMSTOWN, NJ) -- The Road Company presents A Christmas Carol: The Musical weekends from November 20 through December 6, 2025. The classic tale by Charles Dickens comes alive with music by Alan Menken, lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, and book by Lynn Ahrens and Mike Ockrent.
Ebenezer Scrooge, a prosperous curmudgeon, 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 visit on Christmas Eve and lead him through his Past, Present and Future.
Performances take place Thursdays at 7:30pm; Fridays at 8:00pm; Saturdays at 8:00pm; and Sundays at 2:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online. The Grand Theater is located at 405 S. Main Street in Williamstown, New Jersey.
