Take a look at the opening night of Broadway's A Christmas Carol at the Nederlander Theatre . With Jefferson Mays (The Music Man , Oslo ) starring, the production opened November 21, kicking off the holiday mood on the Main Stem following the start of previews November 8. The limited engagement plays through January 1, 2023.
Coming out for the red carpet, Mays was joined by collaborators Susan Lyons and Michael Arden , and Tony-nominated designer Dane Laffrey who originally conceived the solo adaptation of the Charles Dickens story. Also walking the red carpet were Bonnie Milligan , Jason Veasey , Daniel K. Isaac, Nikki M. James, Christopher Wheeldon , Shereen Pimentel , and more.

Telling the uplifting tale of Ebenezer Scrooge's change of heart after visits from the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future, Mays acts out the story—playing all of its characters—in a return to single-person storytelling. Arden directs the Broadway run.
Mays has previously taken on a similar challenge in Doug Wright's I Am My Own Wife —Mays played over 40 characters, earning a Best Actor Tony Award in 2004 for the performance—as well as A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder .
