Seriously this was so amazing! I have told everyone I know to go see this! I've seen a lot of musicals and plays throughout life and 'A Christmas Carol' is one of my favorite stories and this completely lived up to my expectations! Such an amazing Scrooge! Loved every minute!

Sets were outstanding and cleverly changed. Period costumes added to the authentic look. Very well done. The grandchildren thought there was too much singing but the adults enjoyed both singing and dancing. The only downside was difficulty understanding the words at times because of the British accent and speed at which lines were delivered. Overall, lovely performance and a wonderful way to start off the Christmas season.

The play was fantastic. I go to this play every year and I will never miss it. I even proposed to my wife there! Highly recommended! Merry Christmas!

The play, "A Christmas Carol", itself was very good but the sound system was the worst in any play that I have ever been to. At times, you could not understand a thing that was said. When you cannot understand what they are saying, you lose interest very easily.

We had a wonderful time! We took our adult children and we all had a wonderful experience. Scrooge was great! We are planning on returning again next year.

We had trouble hearing the play. They needed to either turn up the microphones or have more microphones. We were in the front of the loge.

Sat on the second level and couldn't hear a thing, they must not have tested their mics!! Was very disappointed!! We left half way through. Maybe on the 1st level it would have been better!

First of all...the Ohio Theater is beautiful! It's one of those places that you just set and stare at all the awesome things. The organist was also wonderful...so many different sounds coming from that organ. The play/musical was very good...the actors did a great job. There were a few times that I couldn't hear the lines and there seemed to be a little confusion when to move the spots to an actor who was speaking...but overall...those things didn't matter...they did a great job. The actor playing Scrooge was amazing...he was on stage most of the evening and was very professional and entertaining. It was a birthday present for my wife and I want to thank you for a wonderful evening.

The play was enjoyable, as it has been for the last 5 years that I've seen it. This is the first year we took our four-year-old daughter and she loved it. She wanted to get a closer look at the ghosts, especially Marley. Every year, the play has a few subtle changes. This year the cast appeared to be smaller (I noticed that during Fezziwig's party, there were fewer couples dancing). However, the one change that I couldn't get past was the actor who played Tiny Tim. He was walking normally throughout the play and he wasn't small at all. The play is centered around the frail Tiny Tim who will succumb to his illness if Scrooge doesn't change his attitude about Christmas. It just was an odd casting choice. Other than that, the cast was highly talented and entertaining. We will continue our family tradition and return next year.

This year we saw a different side of Ebenezer Scrooge; he had a bit of humor added to his character which made him a bit more endearing. Also, the Bob Cratchitt character was allowed to be a bit more humorous which rounded out his character as well.

Forgot how much fun live theater can be! Even the "mistakes" are endearing in the overall moment of the show. Thanks Nebraska Theatre for your hard work and inspired efforts - it made for an enjoyable date night with my wife! The message is always timeless for us all. Cheers and Merry Christmas - God Bless Us - Everyone!!!

Our extended family had louge seats for the performance. The costumes, staging and music were very well done. However, when it came to lights and sound, there were some issues. On several occasions, the spot was well behind the lines and the actor spoke in the dark. Also, the sound needed to be a little louder. Some lines were lost. If these issues are corrected, we feel it would be a worthwhile show to recommend to friends.

Scrooge was very good. He captivated the audience with his manorisms and he represented the character very well. The singing voices of the cast were outstanding, which made the experience of going to the theatre a good one.

I enjoyed Christmas Carol. The scenes were effective and the singing and acting good. The funny scens were not necessary and may have taken some of the effects of the play away, however I realize the director was tring to please all attendees, esp. the young crowd. I was surprised at the number of children in the audience who apparently enjoyed the play. WE certainly need to nurture the young generation with traditions like Christmas Carol. I had not felt any Christmas spririt before I saw this play, caught up with a busy schedule and little money, however the seats were affordable and I found myself singing along with the carols and thoroughly enjoying the play. The Black Mark was that our own Clark Wilson played the Morton Organ as splendidly as ever before, at intermission and after the play yet he was not mentioned ANYWHERE on the program. This oversight should never have happened.

The actor who portrayed Scrooge is brilliant. He masterfully crafted Scrooge's journey from curmudgeon to philanthropist and carried us with him. The adaptations to the story to fit the stage performance worked beautifully. We loved it.

My dad and his side of the family drove up for Thanksgiving in Columbus this year. We try to see if there Christmas Carol once a year. This year since everybody was together we just decided to do it a little early. This particular performance was amazing, and possibly my favorite. Even though I've seen this show and heard the story countless times. I still got emotional and even brought a few tears to my eyes. Parking was affordable and close (we parked at the Ohio State House). The Ohio Theater what is amazing. Tickets were fairly priced. My only negative about this venue was our seats, and after the show was over I noticed nearly all the seats have the nearly no legroom. I think next year we might do it early in Ohio again.

While I have attended many performances of a Christmas Carol, this one was a bit different. Of course the story line was the same but it was evident that there was a new director for this production. To me, it fell short of the usual high standards of this production company. The individual actors were very good but the company together did not seem to have the magic as in the past. Never the less, the performance was very enjoyable. Voices were superb and they blended beautifully. The sound system seemed to be almost "too loud" as the dialogue was garbled at times. A very enjoyable evening to kick off this festive season.

After going to see this play just about every year since my daughter was young (she is now 39) and now bringing my grandsons I was very disappointed with the fund raising at the end of the play. After paying $175. for tickets, getting emails and letters and phone calls year around it kind of took the magic away.

This was advertised as a kid friendly production. Although I enjoyed it, I don't think it was aimed at kids. Basically, it was difficult to understand the British accents, even for me, let alone the children, and I have friends who are Brits! The performers had wonderful singing voices. There was a microphone problem with one character which hindered understanding what he was saying. It was a nice idea to take Tiny Tim from the audience, but at our performance we could not hear either of his important lines (and we were in the 7th row), including "God bless us every one'" ever so important to the story. Great costumes and innovative scenery and scenery changes. For adults, this was fine, but for kids, not so much.

I brought my daughter and husband to see A Christmas Carol. We had come to see a magician show here for Halloween and it was awful so we didn't set are expectations to high. I must say we really enjoyed this show. Scrooge was awesome. The music performers and stage were wonderful. I really liked this show. Great for the family and to put you in a Holiday Spirit.

Production was fantastic. However I did not appreciate the sales pitch at end. Spoiled the Christmas magic a little for me. And no bows by the cast? Meadowbrook isn't as classy as it used to be. Wil be going to Macomb Theater from now on.

This was the best performance yet. We go every year and take our family. This year was just wonderful. It was as if I had never saw this play before. We went on the second showing and you know the actors had to be tired but you would have never known it. My grandchildren loved it also even though they have been there many time. Great job. Great acting. Let Christmas begin. .

I surprised my mother and two youngest sons, ages 16 and 11 with tickets to a Saturday performance. It was the first time they had been to the Palace Theatre, and the first time my boys had ever been to a live performance. Everyone thought it was fantastic! Thank you, actors, for giving it your best; as if it was your first performance!

A Christmas carol play was so wonderful. From the moment they opened the doors and the old fashioned carolers were singing on stage. As the theater filled they engaged the audience and had us singing with them and shaking our keys to jingle bells. As the curtain raised it was immediate action of townspeople doing their Christmas shopping outside old ebenezzers home. There wasn't a dull moment. All the cast were great. We will definitely see another play at meadowbrook theater.
