A Christmas Carol

This year we hung up our ballet slippers and went to see "A Christmas Carol - a Broadway Musical" instead of our traditional "Nutcracker" performance. (I know Chris was very excited to have a break this year...not too excited with the guys-in-tights thing.)

We drove all the way to Provo to see it. It had been snowing there for most of the day but it the roads were fine by the time we had to leave.
The show was great! I had never seen the musical one before - unless you count the totally awesome "Muppet's Christmas Carol." I did actually participate in the play when I was in High School. I was one of the ladies who went to Scrooge to ask for money for the poor orphans. Yes, I know it was a small part - but, if you think about it, most of the parts are male ones. Anyway - on with the show!!



We had great seats too - front row in the center! You couldn't ask for a better place and to top it off, it was a FREE performance. It was bittersweet though, you see...this was the last year that the Center Street Theater was doing it. In fact, the theater was closing up shop and this was their very last performance.

Thank you for a wonderful show!

That is awesome! We never made it to any plays/ musicals/ etc this year. I really wanted to take the kids but, maybe next year.

Does watching prefectly timed Christmas lights and music count as culture??
