December 5, 2025 by For the Item

BEVERLY — Join the more than 1 million people who have been dazzled by this original, award-winning adaptation based on Charles Dickens’ classic novella. “A Christmas Carol” is a musical ghost story following the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, played by David Coffee and joined once again by Cheryl McMahon as Mrs. Dilber for their 31st season, through a series of strange and magical journeys where he ultimately discovers the true spirit of the holiday season. Featuring traditional songs such as “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen,” “Here We Come A-Wassailing,” “The Boar’s Head Carol,” and “We Wish You a Merry Christmas,” this one-of-a-kind production was created specifically for North Shore Music Theatre and has been delighting audiences every holiday season since 1989.
