The joy of the Christmas season returns with this sparkling production from Barter Theatre, streaming free from December 7 – 20. Relive the sheer exhilaration of Ebenezer Scrooge’s ghost-guided journey into his Past, Present and Future, where despair gives way to hope, and reclamation awaits all who seek it.

Adapted by Catherine Bush from the book by Charles Dickens, this On Demand production is a memorable gift to treasure with family and friends that will leave you wrapped in the warmth of holiday spirit. Barter On Demand allows you to stream A Christmas Carol from the comfort of home! All Barter Player performances also include access to special bonus features and educator resources.

The Barter Players are a group of professional artists who perform world-class theatre for young people. The Players believe in theatre that awakens the imaginations of the most exciting, most participatory audience in the world: kids. The performances focus on what brings out bravery in all of us, and shows never talk down to the audience. Because of their fierce theatricality, no-holds-barred acting, and faithfulness to the best stories ever written, The Barter Players have a following among both children and adults alike. The child in all of us deserves wild adventure, incredible story, and the excitement of live theatre so close you can reach out and touch it.
