Bring Your Own Scrooge is an opportunity for families, familial groups, and groups of friends to take a break from the Thanksgiving rush, bring out-of-town guests, and launch the holiday season with a ticket offer to see this high-spirited holiday classic. Patrons simply visit www.dwtheatre.com, click the “Bring Your Own Scrooge” icon, and complete a simple form to share who their family’s or friend-group’s “Scrooge” is.

This internationally touring production of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol features Jeremy Webb, creator and remarkable character of Shakespeare On Trial – the show that brought down the house during two past Mainstage Seasons. Webb has re-envisioned A Christmas Carol in a brilliantly entertaining, 30-character, family-friendly extravaganza. With a run time of 90 minutes, families and friends can catch this production and still have plenty of time to indulge in downtown Asheville’s festive street-scene on Thanksgiving weekend.
