Global Calgary supports: Rosebud Theatre’s A Christmas Carol

Please note, this show is currently suspended and will be re-evaluated on December 6. Please visit this website for updates.

Rosebud Theatre is thrilled to bring you Charles Dickens’ classic A Christmas Carol this holiday season. We’ve been busy working through details of how to safely offer a Christmas production because we miss the delight of entertaining audiences – and most importantly, we’ve really missed seeing all of you!

To date, we are the only Theatre company in Alberta offering A Christmas Carol live on stage. This visually stunning, one-person show embodies all the characters in Dickens’ story. We know it will be the perfect event to ease us safely into this new phase – where we can once again come together in community, albeit with safety and social distancing in place.

We have been working closely with Alberta Health Services to safely re-open. Please read all about the changes you’ll see when we welcome you back to Rosebud.

‍It’s Christmas Eve in Victorian England. A street-wise storyteller lights a candle and with a twinkle in his eye, invites us into the story of a miser who was meant to be a benefactor. His name is Ebenezer Scrooge, and on this very night he will be visited by three spirits. Using Dickens’ richly descriptive language, Nathan Schmidt imagines this well-known tale of redemption in a way that reawakens the time-honoured Christmas spirit it embodies.
