A Christmas Carol at the Alton Mill

The Humber River Shakespeare Company presents its annual original production of the Dickens holiday classic, A Christmas Carol.

This December, gather with friends and family as five actors (Kevin Hammond, Claire Frances Muir, Mark Huisman, Sara Moyle, and Christopher Kelk) bring the timeless tale of greed, ghosts, salvation, and hope to life.

This popular production has been a sold-out event in its original venue, Montgomery's Inn, and the company looks forward to it's newly expanded tour this December 2010. With Victorian costumes designed by multiple Dora award nominee, Nina Okens, and an antique trunk of story-telling treasures, the actors bring you from Scrooges cold bedroom, to Fezziwig's joyful party, the Cratchit's meager table, and to the brightness of a Christmas morning fresh with snow. A heart-warming event for Tiny Tims and Scrooges alike!

Now entering its fourth season of production, the company offers professional and accessible theatre year-round to communities in the Humber Watershed and beyond â" from touring Shakespeare-in-the-Park in the summer, to innovative and original Canadian works in unique spaces in the fall, and A Christmas Carol in the winter.
