This year’s WC Theatre Department holiday production is similar to the classic Ebenezer Scrooge story, a play entitled The Final Carol. Scrooge’s former (and deceased) business partner Jacob Marley has spent the last 150 years helping people understand the true meaning of Christmas, losing one of his chains with each changed life. He has one final chain to lose. Ornery high schooler Jamie Edwards is visited by Marley and the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future on her journey to transformation.

Between the cast list and backstage support, 40 of WC’s Upper School students are involved in this production. The show’s running time is less than one hour and is family-friendly. Tickets will be sold at the door for $5 per person, general admission. There will be three chances to catch the play, on FridayDecember 2, at 7:00 PM, and SaturdayDecember 3, at 2:00 PM and 7:00 PM in the AC Auditorium.
