More than a twist on the classic tale, this retelling of the traditional favorite A Christmas Carol is a gender-bent modernization. Wall Street work-a-holic Eleanor Scrooge (Kristi Webb) tempers her yuletide surliness with a ruthless appetite for power. She's hunkered down in her office on a snowy Christmas Eve, determined to finish a corporate-takeover proposal until three unexpected "advisors" (Maurice Demas, Akilah Felyce, and John Zimmerman) provide her with a new appreciation for the "spirit" of season. A plucky, colorful ensemble (including Brooke Singer & Duncan McIntrye) helps her along on her holiday journey.
