Join us at Cité des Arts this holiday season for our annual family holiday tradition, AN ACADIANA CHRISTMAS CAROL, adapted by Alicia Chaisson from Charles Dickens' beloved yuletide story, the cast is comprised of 20 children from across Acadiana and one adult, Christy Leichty, who is playing Scrooge.Set in contemporary south Louisiana, the story follows the transformation of Etta Scrooge from a disconnected, manipulative profiteer to an empathetic, active participant in the world. Fueled by the magic of Christmas, Scrooge is visited by ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future who teach the valuable lesson that it is never too late to give and accept love. One way of showing love is to accept responsibility. This twist on the classic Dickens' tale will appeal to all with its spirit of
fun, forgiveness, and generosity.
The show will open on Thursday, December 6, with an opening night gala, featuring live Christmas music,
themed cocktails and a holiday feast. The show then runs December 7, 8, 13, and 14 at 7:00 p.m. and December
8 and 15 at 2:00 p.m. General admission tickets are $25 and opening night gala tickets are $35. Tickets are on
sale now at www.citedesarts.org.
AN ACADIANA CHRISTMAS CAROL is sponsored by First Horizon, Superior Contract Cleaning, Cajun
Food Tours and a grant from the Lafayette Convention and Visitors Commission's Lafayette Visitor Enterprise
Fund.
