Character Descriptions:
Ebenezer Scrooge - (50+) A wealthy but miserly old man, Scrooge is infamous for his disdain for Christmas and his harsh treatment of those around him. He is rigid, solitary, and focused solely on his financial gains. Over the course of the story, Scrooge undergoes a profound transformation as he encounters the spirits of Christmas, rediscovering his capacity for kindness and generosity.

Bob Cratchit - (25-45+) Scrooge’s underpaid and overworked clerk, Bob Cratchit is a kind and devoted family man. Despite his meager salary and Scrooge’s harsh treatment, Bob remains optimistic and loving. His family, especially his ill son Tiny Tim, is his greatest source of joy and hope, and his humility and warmth contrast sharply with Scrooge’s coldness.

Frank - (20-30) Scrooge’s cheerful and good-natured nephew, Fred embodies the spirit of Christmas and family. Despite Scrooge’s cold reception of his holiday greetings, Fred remains optimistic and persistent in inviting his uncle to join in the festivities. His warmth and unwavering kindness highlight the contrast between his character and Scrooge’s initial attitude.

Tiny Tim - Bob Cratchit'ss youngest son. A frail, sickly boy, but very optimistic.

Storytellers - (All ages) Acting as the “Greek Chorus,” the Storytellers are closely involved in every scene of the play. Acting as narrators, set movers, dancers, singers, and puppeteers, while portraying multiple supporting characters throughout. Select Storytellers will puppeteer and voice the Spirits that visit Scrooge on Christmas Eve.
