What's up in Lansing: "A Christmas Carol" and more

Here's what's going on in town this weekend

Posted

Good day and happy weekend.

Riverwalk Theatre’s own Tom Ferris injects music and humor into “A Christmas Carol” with his new adaptation of the classic tale.

Audience members are encouraged to show up early for “Fezziwig’s holiday party” before each show, where attendees can mingle with Ebenezer Scrooge, Tiny Tim and other characters before the performance.
