As the personalities clash, Charles' current wife Ruth is accidentally killed, "passes over", joins Elvira and the two "blithe spirits" haunt the hapless Charles into perpetuity.

It quickly became a worldwide phenomenon, and is one of the world's most frequently produced plays. Featured are all 37 of Shakespeare's plays, performed in 97 minutes by three actors. Fast paced, witty, and physical, it's full of laughter for Shakespeare lovers and haters alike.

Over the next three nights, Scrooge is visited by three other spirits who try to convince him that his selfishness will be his downfall.
