Scrooge

ok well my school is doing Scrooge for our fall show..ive never heard of it so i was wondering if somebody can just tell me the basics on the story, the parts, and the numbers...
Salome

well you should know the story and the characters. its the musical version of Dickens "A Christmas Carol".

the film version of the musical starred Albert Finney,Sir Alec Guinness,Dame Edith Evans and David Collings.
