Spirits Return to Theatre Memphis for the Holidays
Memphis, TN –A Christmas Carol will be back on stage, December 5 – 23, 2025, in the Lohrey Theatre at Theatre Memphis for its 48th consecutive production of the holiday classic. The return of Ebenezer Scrooge and the three Spirits who visit him is an adaptation of the Charles Dickens’ novel that follows the journey of the miserly businessman from childhood (through disillusionment and revenge) to redemption.
Directed by Jordan Nichols and Travis Bradley, the annual event has become a holiday favorite for many MidSouth families. Theatre Memphis Executive Producer, Debbie Litch, reflects, “Christmases past have shown us that this universal story is an eye-opening exploration that leads to happiness and enlightenment … not to mention song, dance and holiday cheer. It’s no wonder it has become a tradition in many households to celebrate the season.”
Performance times for A Christmas Carol vary. A full performance date listing is below but can also be seen online at https://theatrememphis.org/events/category/performance-schedule/. “Holiday for Heroes” are three designated performances to offer veterans, active military, police, firefighters, first responders, and Shelby County area teachers discounted tickets for those performances.
