Grumpy Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by three mischievous ghosts who show him the joy he has been missing, told with toe-tapping tunes, colorful characters and plenty of comedy, and ending on kindness, community and second chances. The one-hour running time makes it a manageable first holiday play: CCT recommends it for ages 5 and up, so it works for kindergartners through tweens with their parents or grandparents. The run covers most of December. Seats are reserved through CAPA: book online, call the CAPA Ticket Center at 614-469-0939, or buy in person at the Ohio Theatre box office at 39 E. State Street. ## Similar picks in Columbus - [Columbus Symphony: Holiday Pops](https://grassyknees.com/columbus/activities/columbus-symphony-holiday-pops--listing-aa2852b9ec087ff65ed9e78b) — Fri, Dec 4 (+2 more dates) · Ohio Theatre · Paid · checked Oct 14.
