About this adventure

Portland Playhouse's staging of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol returns to the company's Northeast Portland theater on Prescott Street for its holiday run, with Jimmy Garcia as Ebenezer Scrooge and Cassie Greer directing. The company bills it as a beloved Portland Christmas tradition, and audience comments on its page come from people who return every year. The show runs about two hours and plays Tuesday through Sunday from late November to New Year's Eve. The theater recommends it for ages 5 and up, so it works best for kids who can sit through a full-length play and handle Scrooge's ghostly visitors. Ticket prices vary by date, with cheaper preview performances, premium dates near the holidays, and reduced-price CARE, Arts for All and pay-what-you-wish options that start at $5, so check the calendar for the best fit before booking.
