• A Christmas Carol at the Guthrie Theater – Opening this weekend through December 28^th
  • For over five decades, the Guthrie has brough the tale of A Christmas Carol to audiences of all ages. Each Christmas, the miserly and miserable Ebenezer Scrooge greets the holiday with “Bah! Humbug!” and can’t be bothered to celebrate. One Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by three spirits who show him happy memories from his past, difficult realities from the present and a grim future should he continue his closed-hearted ways. Throughout his journey, Scrooge is forced to reckon with the man he has become and contemplate the man he could be — but only if his restless night leads to a change of heart by morning. Filled with hope and festivity, the Guthrie’s cherished holiday tradition continues to bring joy to theatergoers of all ages.
