There are a few things that tell me Christmas is coming each year; the lighting of Christmas on the Cumberland, Downtown for the Holidays and the Christmas parade, and the Roxy\u2019s wonderful annual rendition of this timeless Christmas story. This week is your last chance to catch this heartwarming show.<\/p>\n<p>The play features John McDonald as Ebenezer Scrooge, and follows him as he meets the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future while rediscovering the true meaning of the Christmas season. McDonald is backed up by a stellar cast that includes: Ryan Bowie, Brianna Hertzberg, Travis Kendrick, Alan Lee, Brandon Meeks, Leah Sugerman and Joylene Taylor. These are some of the best professional actors the Roxy has ever played host to.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Roxy Tradition Endures with Holiday Favorite &quot;A Christmas Carol&quot;\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/j1h0qsfjHGs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Bob Cratchet\u2019s children are played by a different group of area children for each production, and they add their own unique touches to their shows.
