A Christmas Carol: American Sign Language-Interpreted Performance
Friday, December 4 at 7:30pm
“I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.”
Millions have rediscovered Dickens’ classic at The Goodman over the past five decades—and know why it’s “the best Christmas story ever told!” (Time Out Chicago). Follow the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge as ghostly intervention transforms his holiday disdain into delight one fateful Christmas night. Chicago favorite Tim Hopper—”for whom a furrowed brow and serious visage comes easily” (Chicago Tribune)—makes his debut as Scrooge. This timeless production, long heralded for its “first-rate cast and marvelous staging” (Chicago Sun-Times), is not to be missed.

About this event
A Christmas Carol: ASL Interpreted Performance is featured on the Project Awaken Get Active calendar as part of accessible arts and theatre experiences — including ASL-interpreted, audio-described, and open-captioned performances — curated by the Cultural Access Collaborative. Project Awaken brings together listings from trusted Chicago-area partners so people with spinal cord injuries, mobility disabilities, and visual impairments can find welcoming ways to get active, connect with others, and try something new.
Events like this typically welcome participants of varying abilities along with their families, friends, sighted guides, and volunteers, and many are free to attend. If you are new to adaptive sports or recreation, it helps to reach out to the host organization ahead of time with any access questions, ask whether specialized equipment is provided, and bring a companion if that makes you more comfortable. Taking that first step — showing up, asking, trying — is what getting active is all about.
Please confirm the date, time, location, cost, and any registration requirements on the official event or organizer page before attending, as details can change. To find more opportunities, explore our full events calendar, browse Get Active grants and resources, or join the Get Connected peer-support community.
