Description

The Reeves Museum is again proud to present this new and immersive smash-hit adaptation of Dickens’ timeless holiday classic! Set in the historic Reeves Mansion, audiences are invited to step into the world of Victorian London and follow flinty miser Ebenezer Scrooge on his ghostly journey of redemption.

This original and critically-acclaimed theatrical adaptation features brand new scenes, characters, dialogue, and songs, making it a retelling of the beloved holiday tale unlike any other.

Reservations are required and can be made by calling the Museum office, 330-343-7040, or online.

Cost is $35 per person, $30 for Reeves Museum members. 

Due to the immersive and mobile nature of this production, audience members will be required to stand for a significant portion of the 85 minute performance, navigate stairs on multiple occasions, and will, at times, be in close quarters to other audience members.

While this production is family friendly, it does touch on some mature themes and is recommended for children 10 and older.

 Return to the elegance of the late 19th century by visiting the Reeves Victorian Home and its adjoining Carriage House Museum, located in Dover, Ohio.  This opulent mansion, the former residence of prominent

Dover industrialist, Jeremiah E. Reeves, is owned and operated by the Dover Historical Society.

The 17 room Victorian home, topped by a third floor ballroom, has been carefully restored by the Society to its original turn-of-the-century splendor and features the unique treasures of the original furniture and antiques that were the property of Mr. and Mrs. Jeremiah E. Reeves, arranged as they would have been 100 years ago.  

These beautiful family furnishings can be viewed as guests take a guided room by room tour of the home.

The Carriage House Museum, located behind the home, keeps its original purpose by housing an interesting collection of vehicles, including the family's original 1892 carriage, along with the family sleigh, a rare 1922 electric car, and a restored doctor's buggy.  The upstairs of the Carriage House features an exhibit celebrating Dover's years as a canal town as well as the town's rich history.
