In this fast-paced adaptation, Scrooge is a Hilo businessman who has spent a lifetime putting money before people—and Christmas before nobody. But on one unforgettable Christmas Eve, the spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come take him on a journey through Hilo’s past, present, and possible future, forcing him to confront the choices that shaped his life and discover what it really means to be part of a community.

With lightning-fast character changes, playful storytelling, outrageous comedy, local references, and a talented cast bringing the whole town to life, the show is a joyful Christmas celebration Hilo style. Expect familiar Dickens characters with a local twist, a little holiday chaos, and plenty of aloha.
