A Christmas Carol

A Christmas Carol at OneAmerica Mainstage - Indiana Repertory Theater

What could make a famously cold-hearted man rethink an entire lifetime? Dickens built a Christmas classic around that question. On December 26, 2026, at 2:00 PM, A Christmas Carol takes the OneAmerica Mainstage at Indiana Repertory Theatre in Indianapolis. It's a live stage production, not a movie screening, and that difference matters when the story is about a man who has closed himself off from everyone around him.

Here is the heart of it: Scrooge's change. Charles Dickens wrote the tale, and this staging uses a local adaptation by Tom Haas, directed by cara hinh. The presenter describes a production told through story and song, built around one man's redemption and the value of kindness. That's a rich thing to watch with real people breathing the same air. You see a hard heart soften in front of you. Nobody has to explain it. You feel it.

It's also a smart way to spend a holiday-season afternoon. Bring family, a friend or someone you want to see more of. Sit together, share the story, then talk about it on the way out. Indiana Repertory Theatre presents its own production, running November 14 through December 26, and this date falls on the final day. If you want a seasonal outing with substance, warmth and a question worth carrying home about how we treat one another, this fits. Make your plans, pick your seats and claim your seats for A Christmas Carol in Indianapolis.
