A Christmas Carol

A Christmas Carol at OneAmerica Mainstage - Indiana Repertory Theater

The ghosts make the journey possible, but generosity is what gives A Christmas Carol its lasting power. On December 19 at 2:00 PM, A Christmas Carol takes the OneAmerica Mainstage at Indiana Repertory Theater in Indianapolis, and a familiar tale of a hardened man gets the live treatment it was made for.

This is a stage production, not a movie screening. Indiana Repertory Theatre presents its own staging, using the local adaptation by Tom Haas and directed by cara hinh. You're not settling for a generic holiday outing. You're stepping into a specific production, shaped by a specific creative team, built on the story Charles Dickens wrote. The presenter describes it as theatre told through story and song, so the evening carries both narrative drive and a seasonal lift.

At the center is Scrooge's change of heart. It's a story about redemption, generosity and the way kindness can turn a life around. Watching that unfold live, in the same space as everyone else, is different from knowing the plot by heart. Laughter, hush and recognition travel through a theater in ways a screen can't match. A Saturday afternoon performance gives families, friends and longtime theatergoers a shared reason to gather before the holiday rush closes in. Bring someone you want to make a memory with. Then let the story do what it has done for generations: remind you what matters. Reserve your seats for A Christmas Carol in Indianapolis and make this season's story a live one.
