This unique adaptation of the classic story uses only two actors, one playing Scrooge, the other playing Charles Dickens. Dickens then transforms himself into all of the other characters, interacting with Scrooge while also conjuring up each new scene. Five years ago, a group of Trenton students spent their summer creating a sculpture entitled "Helping Hands."
They learned the skills necessary to build something out of nothing with the promise of their work being publicly displayed in their community. Four days after installation, the sculpture was removed due to anonymous complaints that the piece too closely resembled a gang symbol. For over thirty years, Passage has delivered outstanding programs to the Greater Trenton communities.

Rentals
Report
The Mill Hill Playhouse is owned by the City of Trenton. Therefore, use of the space is free to members of the Trenton Community. However, the equipment in the Playhouse is owned by Passage Theatre, and does require upkeep and maintenance. Therefore, there is a small rental fee for using our equipment and staff time.
