Albert Lea Community Theatre (ACT) continues its 58^th season with “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens at the Marion Ross Performing Arts Center, Dec. 7–16.

With a cast of more than 30 local actors directed by Glen Parsons, the show centers around Ebenezer Scrooge, who is haunted by the ghost of his late partner, Jacob Marley, and the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future. Faced with his own mortality and the evil results of his misanthropic, miserly ways, Scrooge is redeemed, reconciled with his nephew and his neighbors, and becomes a second father to his assistant’s son, Tiny Tim.

“A Christmas Carol” will be performed at the Marion Ross Performing Arts Center in downtown Albert Lea on Dec. 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15 and 16. Shows start at 7:30 p.m., with the Sunday, Dec. 10, matinee beginning at 2 p.m.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for students. Tickets may be purchased over the phone by calling 877-730-3144 (service fees apply), online at actonbroadway.com or at the box office. Tickets also are for sale at the Albert Lea Convention & Visitors Bureau. More information on tickets and box office hours is on actonbroadway.com.
