The show blends humor, heart and high energy, to help kick off the season’s festivities.
The Clearfield Arts Studio Theatre will stage “A Christmas Carol” at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 11-13 and Dec. 18-20.
This year’s production features the Charles Dickens classic, adapted by Charles Ludlam, who created a delightfully ridiculous yet remarkably faithful retelling of the classic holiday tale. Suitable for all ages, the show blends humor, heart and high energy, making it the perfect addition to the season’s festivities.
Audiences will follow the journey of Ebenezer Scrooge as he is visited by the ghosts of his late partner, Jacob Marley, as well as Christmas Past, Christmas Present and the Spirit of Christmas Yet to Come.
Through these encounters, Scrooge confronts his misanthropic ways, discovers redemption, reconnects with loved ones, and ultimately becomes a second father to Tiny Tim.
Ludlam’s witty adaptation highlights both the lighthearted and heartfelt moments that have made Dickens’ story a timeless favorite.
During intermission, guests may enjoy popcorn, candy and other refreshments for a donation to the CAST Scholarship Fund. Audience members will also have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets for a chance to win a festive gift basket, with proceeds benefiting both the CAST Scholarship Fund and the Children’s Aid Society.
The production is directed by Lew Duttry and Julie Tobias and is sponsored by CNB Bank, Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub and Penn Highlands Healthcare.
CAST also reminds patrons that 2026 season tickets are currently on sale and make great gifts. For more information, visit www.ClearfieldArts.org, find CAST on Facebook and Instagram, or call 814-765-4474.
