After COVID-19 forced the theater to shut down, event organizers have been forced to be creative and re-imagine productions this year, Turner said in the release.

“It’s going to be a very unique, very intimate ‘Christmas Carol’ like none you’ve never seen before and its going to be special," Melrose said. "And the fact that all Houstonians can take part in it, is pretty wonderful.”
