The snow filled finale of a Dickens' Chirstmas Carol.
“What a wonderful fantastic show,” said Tammy Johnson, the Director of Operations for the Branson Tourism Center right after seeing “A Dickens’ Christmas Carol” recently at Silver Dollar City’s “An Old Time Christmas.” “It is yet another example of the quality and variety of Branson’s live shows,” she continued.
In a town like Branson, known for its live shows, one does not normally think of shows when thinking about its number one and longest running paid attraction, Silver Dollar City. However, here’s a little secret, Silver Dollar City puts on some of the best produced, entertaining and most unique shows in Branson including, but not limited to its productions of “Fiery Fiddles” during Worldfest, “Headin’ West” during the National Harvest Festival and, of course, “A Dickens’ Christmas Carol” as part of its Old Time Christmas.
This 60 minute musical adaptation of the Dickens classic novel was created specifically for Silver Dollar City and is not just a remarkable entertainment event, but a unique and special Christmas experience not available anywhere else. It features an extremely talented cast, “a live band, astounding special effects, stunning Victorian scenery and exquisite period costuming.” Combined with the spirit, energy and talent of the cast, the story of the skinflint Scrooge and his journey of change from “Humbug” to the true Christmas spirit comes to life in an exciting and inspirational manner.
