Lake Country Players presents the annual production of  “A Christmas Carol: the Musical” in downtown Hartland.

Lake Country Playhouse, a unique and intimate community theater located in Hartland, Wisconsin, is proud to present its 14th annual community production of Charles Dickens’ beloved holiday classic, A Christmas Carol.

Ebenezer Scrooge is a prosperous curmudgeon who believes personal wealth is far more valuable than the happiness and comfort of others. With an infuriated “Bah! Humbug!” Scrooge summates his feelings of Christmas tidings and charitable giving, but he’s forced to face his selfish ways when three ghosts on Christmas Eve lead him through his Past, Present, & Future. Thanks to their guidance, Scrooge greets Christmas morning with a cheerful “Happy Christmas” in this delightful musical rendition of the Charles Dickens classic.

“When Charles Dickens created this story I don’t know if he realized that he also created the perfect script,” says director Robert Hurd, Sr. “We honor his story through this adaptation by playwright Michael Koscinski and music by Ernest Brusubardis. Come and continue your holiday tradition or start your own tradition this year!”

A Christmas Carol is directed by Hurd, with music direction by Angie Rodenkirch. Nancy Hurd, Sharon Jahneke, Dawn Mudry, Evie Erickson, Paula Nordwig, and Max Levine round out the creative team.

A Christmas Carol will run from November 29-December 15th, 2024. Performances will be held on Thursday and Friday nights at 7:30 pm, Saturday and Sunday afternoons at 2:00 pm, and Saturday and Sunday nights at 6:00 pm. Tickets are $29.50. Group pricing is also available. Tickets can be purchased online at www.lakecountryplayhousewi.org.
