You want a Play, but not A Christmas Carol.

Synopsis:
Hans Christian Andersen's tale of a poor little girl who is trying to sell matches on the coldest day of the year. The holiday merry-makers are too engrossed in their own worlds to pay attention to the ragged child as she slowly freezes to death. In an attempt to get warm, the girl lights her matches. With each one she sees visions of a street carnival, a toy shop, a holiday feast, a skating party, a grand ball and a warm, green meadow. In her final moments, she gets a vision of her grandmother who takes her away to a warm and happy place.
