On December 4, the cast and crew of the DPL Teen Readers' Theatre presented their customized version of "A Christmas Carol" in the Friends' Auditorium.
The story opens in Scrooge's office. Scrooge complains about all the nonsense about Christmas, while poor Bob Crowley works away. A charity lady asks for a donation from Scrooge, and is sent on her way (rudely).
After refusing his niece's invitation to Christmas dinner, Scrooge goes home and falls asleep in front of the TV.
The ghost of Marley, Scrooge's dead partner, offers Scrooge one last chance to redeem himself.

The Ghost of Christmas Past makes a dramatic entrance, and shows Scrooge how he felt about Christmas when he was a boy.
The Ghost of Christmas Present shows Scrooge scenes of people enjoying the holidays, including the Crowley family (in the poor neighborhood of Farmington Hills).
The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come tells Scrooge what could happen if he doesn't change his attitude.
