[NoHo Arts District, CA] – A Noise Within’s enchanting production of A Christmas Carol — a stage adaptation by Geoff Elliott that is uniquely faithful to the original novel by Charles Dickens — will once again enthrall audiences for the 2024 holiday season.
Every word in Elliott’s play is right out of the novel — not a single one has been added. Throw in lush original music, eye-popping costumes, holiday crafts in the beautifully decorated lobby and photo ops with the cast after the show, and this A Christmas Carol might just be the best holiday party in town.
The Cast
Co-directed by Elliott and Julia Rodriguez-Elliott, Elliott also alternates in the role of Ebenezer Scrooge with Frederick Stuart, each playing opposite Riley Shanahan as Marley. Trisha Miller is the Ghost of Christmas Past, Anthony Adu is the Ghost of Christmas Present, and David A. Rangel is the Ghost of Christmas Future. Kasey Mahaffy returns as Bob Cratchit and Emily Kosloski is back as Mrs. Cratchit. Brooklyn Bao, Stella Bullock, Brendan Burgos, John Preston and Estella Stuart take on the roles of the Cratchit children, with Aria Zhang as Tiny Tim. The narrator is Mildred Marie Langford, and Madison Keffer rounds out the ensemble.
”I say it every year — A Christmas Carol is the greatest story of redemption ever written,” says Elliott. “There is so much depth that we’re able to make new discoveries each time we do it, keeping the production fresh with new surprises year after year. It’s always a little bit different.”
“The play offers such a great balance between a spooky ghost story, and the joy and exuberance that comes with Scrooge’s transformation,” suggests Rodriguez-Elliott. “The story is sophisticated in a way that appeals to adults, but it’s not out of reach for a young audience.”

The creative team includes composer and sound designer Robert Oriol, music director Rod Bagheri; original costume designer Angela Balogh Calin; wig and makeup designer Tony Valdés; lighting designer Ken Booth; projections designer Kristy Campbell; and properties designer Stephen Taylor.
