Reinvented each year by a fresh creative team and resident acting company, the spirited production features soaring Victorian carols, dazzling stagecraft, lively choreography, and uplifting messages of compassion and community. Children and adults alike will be enchanted as Ebenezer Scrooge is swept away by the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future through snowy London streets. The performance runs approximately two hours including a brief intermission, with family-friendly matinees scheduled on weekend afternoons throughout November and December. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Historic theater lobby is wheelchair and stroller accessible with ramp entry; strollers can be checked with the house manager during performances. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Lobby mezzanine offers cushioned seating and fully equipped accessible restrooms with changing stations. • Age Suitability: Recommended for ages 5 and older; engaging dialogue, music, and colorful costumes hold the attention of school-age children and teens. • Sensory Tips: Sensory-friendly and open-captioned performances scheduled in early December feature lowered sound effects, subdued lighting shifts, and a quiet chill-out room in the lobby. ## Similar picks in Providence - [A Christmas Carol — Sensory-Friendly Plus!
