It turns out not even Scrooge can stay cross when dancing’s afoot.
Take in a different twist on a classic Christmas story with Ballet Theatre San Luis Obispo’s performance of Gilbert Reed’s masterful telling of the Dickens classic A Christmas Carol Dec. 16 through 18 at Cal Poly’s Alex and Faye Spanos Theatre. This lively ballet is set to Sir Thomas Beecham’s orchestrations of music by G. F. Handel. A Christmas Carol tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge’s journey from heartless miser to generous soul.
Tickets for the ballet range from $20 to $44. Visit pacslo.org for tickets and more information.
