As our children were growing up, we tried to do things together such as reading, skiing, going to church, visiting other and trying fun activities during our annual holidays.
Our grown children are sensitive to our desires. No matter where they are, they always come home to visit especially at Christmas time.
We wanted to do something special with our son while he was home visiting us.
The show was playing at the Elgin Theatre in downtown Toronto.

A National Historic Site, the Elgin Theatre is an elegant theatre built in 1913 with magnificent Corinthian columns in its lobby.
This show " A Christmas Carol" was a musical show quite different from what we had expected from the classical Charles Dickens' version of the story.
To the younger audience's delight, this show was a modern version of the classical play with the cast performing dances to many popular modern Christmas songs.
In the show, Scrooge was still portrayed as a money crazy character being mean to his employees.
He was visited by the ghost three times throughout the night. However, this different play had many twists and current events incorporated in the modified version of " A Christmas Carol".
We love watching the show together as a family.
We enjoy time spent with our grown sons and being together and having fun is precious to us!
