New York City actor and playwright Greg Oliver Bodine will return to Asbury Park to perform his critically acclaimed, one-man performance of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol at a limited, one-night only engagement at Paranormal Books & Curiosities.

The one-hour, one-man performance runs for one night only on Saturday, Dec. 6 at 7 p.m.

The story is adapted from Dickens’ classic Christmas tale. It takes place in 1867 at the rough start of Dickens’ American Reading Tour. Due to an inexplicable loss of his luggage, he regretfully announces that he will be unable to read from his beloved classic, “A Christmas Carol.” All is not lost however — Dickens delivers what he promised by performing from memory the magical story of Ebenezer Scrooge’s journey from miserliness to redemption with warmth and humor.

The one-man play is based on the condensed version Dickens himself used on his historic reading tours of the United States and is adapted here to offer a unique theatrical experience.

The performance is suitable for adults and children over ten years of age.

Seating is very limited. General admission tickets to the event are $20. Advance reservations must be secured with a credit card payment. Click here to make a reservation.
