Twisted the Musical We’ve all heard the tragic tale of Ebenezer Scrooge, the miserly man who despised Christmas.

But what heartaches brought him to a point of such brokenness and despair? What events transpired that could forge a heart so bitter and a soul so twisted?

Join us as we pull back the curtain on this classic Christmas story with an immersive, live production. Infused with drama and humor, Twisted chronicles the beloved backstory of Scrooge set to the backdrop of your favorite 80’s songs. Laugh, cry, and fall in love with this redemptive, re-imagined twist on a classic Christmas story.
