Chesapeake Shakespeare Company’s annual holiday tradition sets Dickens’ A Christmas Carol in 19th-century Baltimore, following a miser who rediscovers the generous spirit of the season. Special events include a Director’s Talk (Nov 29), a Handel Choir pre-show and cast Q&A (Dec 4), Cocoa & Crafts (Dec 5) and an audio-described performance (Dec 11).

Chesapeake Shakespeare Company produces Shakespeare and other classic works in an adaptive-reuse theater in downtown Baltimore, alongside education, camps, classes, and community programs.
