Upcoming Arts Events
This holiday season, Center REP has assembled an award-winning team of artists for an all-new production of the treasured holiday classic, A Christmas Carol.
In this heartfelt and exceedingly lively new adaptation, a young Tim Cratchit makes a wish on a candle, invoking a series of ghostly visitors to the bedside of miserly Ebenezer Scrooge. With a “humbug!” on his breath, the curmudgeon is whisked away on a journey of awakening. Don’t miss the Bay Area’s grandest telling of Dickens’ classic in this not-to-be-missed premiere production–order tickets today.
