ABOUT THE SHOW
It's the Trial of the Century! The Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge by Mark Brown is comic fun for all ages and filled with Dickens' familiar characters in a new setting: a courtroom.
A year after his miraculous transformation, Ebenezer Scrooge is back to his old ways and is suing Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future for breaking and entering, kidnapping, slander, pain and suffering, attempted murder and the intentional infliction of emotional distress.
The ghosts employ Solomon Rothschild, England's most charismatic, savvy, and clever barrister. Scrooge, that old penny pincher, represents himself.
One by one, Bob Cratchit, Scrooge's nephew Fred, solicitor and philanthropist Sara Anne Wainwright, and the ghosts themselves take the witness stand to give their account of the night in question.
Is Scrooge's return to his old self just part of a show trial? Can he find true redemption once again? The surprising verdict and its satisfying aftermath may explain it all.
God bless us, every one!
