Featured review
My family and I watched this latest version of the Dickens classic and were all totally entertained. I thought the songs were excellent and performed very well by actors who can actually sing. Kelsey Grammar handled the part of Scrooge quite believably throughout the musical. Jane Krakowski's Ghost of Christmas Past was indeed a delight to watch, I, for one, would like to hear more of her singing. I think she has quite a lovely voice. I felt that all the actors did admirably in their roles.
I think this will become a Christmas classic.
