THE ARCHIVE THEATER COMPANY PRESENTS:

THE GHOSTS OF CHRISTMAS PAST

NOVEMBER 30 - DECEMBER 3 | WESSELS HALL, PIONEER FARMS

For one weekend only, The Archive Theater will bring you a unique preview of their Victorian Christmas production The Ghosts of Christmas Past. The tradition of gathering around a crackling fire to share thrilling tales of the supernatural goes back to the dawn of time and Victorian writers were masters of the genre.  Enjoy a family-friendly production with traditional holiday desserts, spiced cider, live music, a carol sing-a-long, and deliciously spooky tales. Be on your best behavior because the Krampus might be visiting. We hope you’ll join us for The Ghosts Of Christmas Past - Staged Reading (absolutely no part of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol will be included).  

If you haven't been to a staged reading before, here's what you can expect. Actors in Victorian costume will be reading from scripts, and acting out portions of the show on a minimal holiday themed set with live music accompaniement. Afterwards we'll have opportunities for guests to give us feedback on our scipt as we work to bring it to a full production for 2024.
