| The Trial of Ebenezer Scrooge
Cast: 6 men, 3 women The Trial of the Century! A year after his miraculous transformation, Ebenezer Scrooge is back to his old ways and is suing Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future for breaking and entering, kidnapping, slander, pain and suffering, attempted murder and the intentional infliction of emotional distress. The ghosts employ Solomon Rothschild, England's most charismatic, savvy, and clever barrister. Scrooge, that old penny pincher, represents himself. One by one, Bob Cratchit, Scrooge's nephew Fred, solicitor and philanthropist Sara Anne Wainwright, and the ghosts themselves take the witness stand to give their account of the night in question. But the Spirit of Christmas Future breaks down under heavy questioning and confesses that Jacob Marley forced the spirits to break one of the rules of redemption: Do not use a dead body to scare someone into redemption, for the consequences could prove fatal. Judge Stanchfield Pearson gives his verdict: Jacob Marley and the Spirits of Christmas, guilty! What will happen to the Ghosts of Christmas? “Scrooge”: is the character that the play revolves around. Scrooge is a miserly bookkeeper in the city of London. “Jacob Marley”: is the deceased business partner of Scrooge. Marley’s ghost visits Scrooge to warn him of the impending visits from the three ghosts. “Ghost of Christmas Past, Present, and Future”: are the three ghosts on trial for breaking and entering and kidnapping Scrooge.
