Step into the magic of Christmas Past, Present, and Future! A Cripple Creek Christmas Carol is not just another retelling of Dickens beloved classic – it’s a dazzling holiday experience like no other! Written by Chris Sorensen & Chris Armbrister, with beautiful original score and music by James Mablin, this adaptation breathes new life into A Christmas Carol with a historical twist that’s uniquely Cripple Creek. Set in the heart of Cripple Creek, Colorado, a real-life gold-mining town with a rich history, we meet Bob Womack, the town’s founder, as he “borrows” inspiration from Dickens to rescue a Scrooge-like mine owner, Gooch, from his greed and loneliness. Enjoy original songs, historical characters, real locales, heartfelt comedy, and a timeless message of love and generosity. This isn’t just a play – it’s a journey. Immerse yourself in the magic of Cripple Creek, where history and holiday spirit collide to create an unforgettable celebration of Christmas. Don’t miss your chance to experience a holiday classic with a Colorado twist.
