WELCOME I am pleased to welcome you back to the Civic Center Music Hall for the 2021-2022 Season. The pandemic was particularly impactful on the performing arts industry last year which resulted in significant changes here at the Civic Center and with our resident companies’ seasons. We are profoundly thankful to you, our patrons, to our sponsors and Suite Holders for your unwavering support during that most trying time.

This season may be the most monumental season ever experienced at the Civic Center Music Hall, and I am thrilled to share it with you.

Additionally, we ask that you pardon our progress as we work to improve your visits to the Civic Center for years to come. The enhancements that are currently underway promise to improve your experiences profoundly. You can find more information about the renovation on our website, at okcciviccenter.com/renovation.

A Christmas Carol is a ghost of a tale about the mean-spirited Ebenezer Scrooge—a businessman who believes charity promotes idleness and the poor should be left to die. In one spirited night after receiving visits from his dead business partner, and the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future—Scrooge awakes to the realization he’s been given a second chance to correct his mean and surly disposition toward humanity and Christmas. For all audiences.

By Charles Dickens adapted by Richard Nelson
