A Christmas Carol
CriticsCritics: 60

The radical new take on Dickens’ classic seeks both to exhume the original story’s gritty commentary on social inequality and the corrupting influence of greed, and to breathe new life into the lyricism of the original text by setting its scenes to extraordinary tableaux of modern dance.
My takeScrooge confronts his past, present, and future through supernatural visitations on Christmas Eve, discovering redemption through the spirits' haunting revelations. This adaptation captures the timeless tale of transformation and the profound power of generosity and human connection during the holiday season.
