THIS December, in the jolly surroundings of the Spiegeltent Pavilion, Open Door Productions presents Scrooged – a musical Christmas comedy guaranteed to delight audiences of all ages.

Devised and directed by acclaimed Limerick theatre-maker Margaret Hough, tickets for the festive family production are now officially on sale.

Scrooged is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud reimagining of Charles Dickens' timeless classic, A Christmas Carol.

Packed with comedy, live music, audience interaction and spectacular theatrical moments, this joyful production promises to become a festive highlight in Limerick's Christmas calendar.

The festive production will take place on Saturday, December 5, and Sunday, December 6, with performances at 2pm and 4pm each day.

Speaking ahead of the production, director Margaret Hough said the musical comedy is all about “celebrating the joy of Christmas through laughter, music and storytelling.”

“We've created a show that's packed with energy, humour and heart, and we can't wait to share it with audiences in the beautiful surroundings of the Spiegeltent Pavilion,” Ms Hough explained.

Featuring a talented cast of nine celebrated Limerick performers, Scrooged brings Ebenezer Scrooge's unforgettable journey to life with lightning-fast costume changes, lively musical numbers, dazzling sound and lighting effects, and plenty of festive surprises along the way.

Audiences will follow Scrooge as he transforms from a cold-hearted miser into a man filled with generosity, kindness and Christmas spirit.

Recommended for ages 5 plus, Scrooged is the perfect Christmas outing for families looking to share laughter, music and festive magic together.

Whether you're introducing children to Dickens for the first time or rediscovering the beloved story yourself, this production offers something for everyone.
