THE PICKWICK PLAYERS PRESENT SCROOGE, THE MUSICAL!

The Pickwick Players are bringing holiday cheer to Loudoun
County this December with six fun-filled performances of Scrooge, The Musical at Belmont Ridge Middle School in the Lansdowne area of Leesburg, VA.  This heart-warming musical will be performed on Friday, December 2 at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, December 3 at 2:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., Friday, December 9 at 7:30 p.m., and Saturday, December 10 at 2:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.  Tickets are available for purchase online through PayPal at  http://www.thepickwickplayers.org or at the door. 

A $50 Wegmans gift card will be given away at every performance to one of the lucky people who brings canned goods for Loudoun Interfaith Relief (www.interfaithrelief.org).  In addition, a portion of the proceeds from the performances will be donated to Loudoun Cares (www.loudouncares.org).

Featuring over eighty local children, teens, and adults, Scrooge, The Musical is adapted from the classic Charles Dickens ghost story A Christmas Carol and set to lively music by Leslie Bricusse.  Set in London, England in 1843, wealthy yet miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former partner, Jacob Marley, and the Ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future, causing him to realize the error of his ways.  Filled with crowd-pleasing songs such as “I Hate Christmas”, “Thank You Very Much”, and “December the Twenty-Fifth”, Scrooge, The Musical is a holiday classic the whole family can enjoy together!
