Enjoy all your favorite Christmas tales in one delightful evening! Mr. Pickwick’s Christmas, is a holiday celebration in story, song and dance loosely based upon; “A Christmas Carol”, “The Pickwick Papers”, and “Cricket on the Hearth” by Charles Dickens and “A Visit From St. Nicholas” (now called “The Night Before Christmas”) by Dr. Clement Clark Moore.

The evening begins as you are greeted by Mr. Pickwick himself for an evening of carols, cookies and stories in Mr. Pickwick and Auntie Margaret Bounderby’s country estate. Experience the songs, poems and carols of 1860’s England delightfully woven into familiar Charles Dickens’ tales that would warm the cockles of even Old Scrooge’s heart. Mr. Pickwick, along with their special guests and carolers, serve up a holiday musical entertainment that you will not want to miss!
