A Christmas Carol is one of my all time favourite stories and I look forward to enjoying several versions each year during the holiday season. My favourite versions include the 1951 Alastair Sim movie and Soulpepper Theatre's live production, which they seem to mount every other year.
Joseph Ziegler plays a magnificent Scrooge. He captures the character perfectly and handles the transformation from "humbug" to regaining his inner joy in a truly believable manner. I just love watching him slowly melt from a crotchety unhappy soul into a foolish and giddy friend to all.
This is a magnificent play and I strongly recommend you include it in your Christmas plans in the future.
