Listen to the sounds of “A Christmas Carol” while taking in the historic Conrad Mansion Museum.
The Gypsy Theatre Guild will perform the Charles Dickens’ classic famously dramatized for the radio on Dec. 6, 7 and 8.
Actors will be on the second floor as guests listen to the 90-minute holiday classic in the mansion’s festively decorated Great Hall.
“A Christmas Carol” recounts the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, an elderly miser who is visited by the ghost of his former business partner and the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come. In the process, Scrooge is transformed into a kinder, gentler man.
The radio version is based on Orson Welles’ original play and was famously dramatized for the radio and narrated by Welles and featuring Lionel Barrymore as Ebenezer Scrooge in 1939 on Christmas Eve.
