"We knew that Bob Christianson did great work but this show really hit the mark. The audience loved it. The cast was phenomenal and I've received very positive feedback from members of the orchestra, staff, and patrons. Dickens' classic tale has always been one of my favorite holiday traditions but I can't imagine experiencing it any other way now."

- Matthew Spivey,
Vice President of Artistic Operations Baltimore Symphony Orchestra
