The Christmas Carol Musical

This much-loved classical story by Charles Dickens has seen many play & film versions, with just as many stage musical interpretations.
In this rendition, I've used most of Dickens' original text and added new & original score. My own stage set involves the use of MDF boards using both sides to facilitate quick and easy changes for continuity purposes. Full instructions are included in the libretto. It is a perfect vehicle for any school or college seeking a presentation for your Winter Programme.
