Central Florida Community College Theatre will present "Marley's Ghost," Jeff Goode's hilarious prequel to "The Christmas Carol."

"This delightfully funny play explores what happened before we met Scrooge in Dickens' famous story," said Dave Hartley, professor of theater and history. "The characters are all there, as is the well-known story, but seen from a unique and different perspective."

For the holidays TOTS suggests a delightful prequel to Dickens' classic Christmas Carol, Marley's Ghost.

"Marley was dead: to begin with. There was no doubt about that."

But when chief, and only mourner, Ebenezer Scrooge refuses to pay for the closing of the grave, Jacob has no choice but to examine the events leading up to his death and to the point where Scrooge's familiar story begins. This visual treat was penned by Jeff Goode, author of The EIGHT: Reindeer Monologues.
