Dolly Parton's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol

Ebenezer Scrooge owns a mining company town in the 1930s Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. As a Christmas Eve snowstorm rolls in, his late business partner and three ghosts show up to convince him that love is the greatest gift. Music and lyrics are by eleven-time GRAMMY winner Dolly Parton, with a book by David H. Bell.
There are two more performances on Saturday, December 12, at 1:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. A dollar from every ticket sold goes to Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, which mails free books each month to children from birth to age five.
