Cost: $15

In this LIVE, virtual event presented by SMDCAC, interdisciplinary performance collective Manual Cinema takes on the Charles Dickens holiday classic with a visually inventive adaptation made to broadcast directly to your home. An avowed holiday skeptic, Aunt Trudy has been recruited to channel her late husband Joe’s famous Christmas cheer. From the isolation of her Chicago apartment, she reconstructs his annual Christmas Carol puppet show – over a Zoom call while the family celebrates Christmas Eve under lockdown. But as Trudy becomes more absorbed in her own version of the story, the puppets take on a life of their own, and the family’s call transforms into a stunning cinematic adaptation of Dickens’s classic ghost story.

Tickets are available November 30: https://smdcac.org/events/manual-cinemas-christmas-carol
