 Brookwood High Drama brings a cast of over twenty-five performing arts students to the Brookwood stage. A mean-spirited, miserly old man named Ebenezer Scrooge sits in his counting-house on a frigid Christmas Eve as his clerk, Bob Cratchit, shivers in the anteroom because Scrooge refuses to spend money on heating coals for a fire. Thus comes to life this Christmas classic. Tickets on sale at the door. $7 for adults, $6 for students and senior citizens. December 1 and 3, 7:00 p.m. in the BHS Theatre.
