Holiday Drama / 8m, 6f (doubling possible)/ Interior Set As "A Christmas Carol" with a modern day twist, Humbug follows the story of Eleanor Scrooge, a ruthlessly ambitious Wall Street executive who has an aversion to Christmas and an insatiable appetite for power. Locked in her office on a snowy Christmas Eve, Eleanor is determined to finish a corporate-takeover proposal until three "advisors" provide her with an eye-opening new appreciation for the holidays and the spirit of Christmas. An upbeat and moving adaptation of Dickens' holiday classic, Humbug is one for the ages. With a contemporary flair, it is a tale the whole family will enjoy! "Wooten has indeed concocted a comedy that puts a great of deal of delicious nonsense into Charles Dickens' most famous story...a multitude of laughs" - The Newark Star-Ledger
