Scrooge Syndrome

Scrooge Syndrome

Sponsored by the Heritage Foundation of Franklin and Williamson County, “The Scrooge Syndrome” premiers December 8, 9 and 10 at Fourth Avenue Church of Christ.  C.B. Griffith wrote the two-act musical as a sequel to Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.”  The musical takes place five years after Scrooge’s miraculous transformation. 
    
Now, Tiny Tim is a teenager. Bob’s wife Molly is pregnant and about to deliver. It is a week before Christmas but all is not well. Another Christmas Eve miracle is needed to set things right. And a miracle does indeed occur, a miracle brought about by a most unlikely character.
   
While you and your family are out enjoying downtown Franklin’s Annual Dickens of a Christmas, take time to come in from the cold and watch this delightful performance.

    Performances are the following:
              Friday, Dec. 8 at 7 p.m.,
             Saturday, Dec. 9 at 2:30 p.m. and 7 p.m.,
             Sunday at 2:30 p.m.

Ticket prices are $5 for children (12 and under) and seniors (65+) and $10 for adults. Tickets are available at the Heritage Foundation office at the back door of the Five Points Post Office. 
   
The Scrooge Syndrome is one of many activities that are part of the 23rd Annual Dickens of a Christmas event, a free street festival on Franklin’s historic Main Street and Public Square from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 9 and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday.
