A Christmas Carol

Presented by Center REP

Note as of 12/21/22: Center Repertory Company is announcing the early closure of this year's beautiful "A Christmas Carol" production at the Lesher Center due to additional cases of Covid-19. The remaining shows (12/21 and 12/22) have been canceled.

Their dedicated cast, crew, and design team worked theater magic to bring the show to audience members this season despite the ongoing impacts of the pandemic. We're all grateful for the performances that were able to take place.

Ticket holders have been contacted via email with a few options. Responding to that message is the best form of communication for our Ticket Office team as they manage a large volume of calls and emails.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Brimming with music and dance, love and laughter, spectacular special effects, it’s no wonder the critics have called it “THE Christmas Carol to see in the Bay Area.” Join the thousands who make this theatrical event a part of their annual holiday traditions.

Performed in loving memory of Ken Ruta and Wendy Wisely.

Running Time: approx. 2 hours, with one intermission
