A Christmas Carol

The Guthrie Theater presents its annual production of A Christmas Carol, a theatrical adaptation of Charles Dickens' timeless holiday story. This staging is a Minneapolis tradition, known for its elaborate sets, period costumes, and a consistent cast that brings the classic tale of Ebenezer Scrooge's transformation to life. It's a familiar and celebrated interpretation of the narrative. This performance takes place on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at the Guthrie Theater's Wurtele Thrust Stage in Minneapolis. The thrust stage design offers an intimate viewing experience, placing the audience close to the action from three sides. This show generally appeals to families, theatergoers looking for a traditional holiday experience, and those who appreciate classic literature brought to the stage.
