'A WONDERHEADS Christmas Carol' has become a tradition for thousands of theatre-goers each December. This astonishing production features larger than life characters, glowing ghosts, and 10-foot-tall puppets, to name just a few of the treats in store for audiences as they are whisked away with Ebenezer Scrooge on his magical Christmas Eve adventure. Prepare to laugh, cry, and be utterly enchanted this holiday season!
