New Life Fine Arts’ spiritually uplifting musical adaptation of the 1843 Charles Dickens’ classic tells the story of the tight-fisted curmudgeon, Ebenezer Scrooge, and his personal transformation as he is supernaturally confronted with the haunting truth of his wounded past, his spiritually impoverished present and his woeful future.

“Ebenezer Scrooge: A Christmas Carol” is directed by Concord composer, David MacAdam who wrote the adaptation while living in England. It was first produced there in 1984. For over 25 years, tens of thousands of NLFA patrons have been given an inspirational glimpse into the true meaning of Christmas and are encouraged to spread their holiday joy throughout the year.

"I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round
— apart from the veneration due to its sacred name and origin,
if anything belonging to it can be apart from that —
as a good time;"
 
– Fred, Scrooge’s nephew in Charles Dickens, “A Christmas Carol”
