On December 2, 1867, Charles Dickens began his first American reading tour of "A Christmas Carol" in Boston. Since 2002, WBUR has hosted a reading of this timeless holiday tale at the Omni Parker House, the historic site of Dickens’ first performance.
This year, the tradition will continue at CitySpace with a reading by your favorite WBUR hosts and reporters: Tiziana Dearing, Sharon Brody, Ben Brock Johnson, Darryl C. Murphy and Robin Young with musical performances by The Mistletones.
Celebrate the 21st anniversary of this annual event and support the women of Rosie's Place with your ticket purchase. Founded in 1974 as the first women’s shelter in the United States, Rosie's Place provides a safe and nurturing environment to help poor and homeless women maintain their dignity, seek opportunity and find security in their lives.
Complimentary cookies and hot cocoa will be served to attendees during intermission.
