Performances December 5-8
Box office opens in November!
It’s utter mayhem backstage on Opening Night for an Off-Broadway production of the holiday classic A Christmas Carol! The child actors have food poisoning, the lead actor is nowhere to be found, and the flying rig broke. And to add to the confusion, the sets and costumes have been repossessed and the backstage crew is enlisted as understudies. When a notorious loan shark arrives to collect from the producer, and the FBI promises to shut the show down, the wackiness reaches a fever pitch.
But the show must go on! The classic redemption story of the miser Ebenezer Scrooge and his ghostly visitors is told like it has never been before with comedy, drama, and a whole lot of heart. Kick off your own Christmas season with this world-premiere farcical adaptation of Dickens’ much-loved story filled with laughter and the magic of theatre.

our mission statement
On its expansive stage, the Hannon Theatre Company welcomes young artists from all over Los Angeles to collaborate on productions renowned for their professionalism and innovation. In its seats, audience members witness creativity they rank with the best theatre companies in Southern California. But first and foremost, in its rehearsal halls and technical shops, our members grow personally, academically, and spiritually due to a shared sense of mission. Our students and teachers commit themselves to working together, bringing theatre to life which resonates with meaning and purpose.
our equity and inclusion statement
Whereas HTC’s philosophies have been published for years in our in-house handbook given to prospective members and their parents, we are moved to share it on our website’s landing page for full transparency. We do so in an effort to keep us accountable and to provide inspiration through proclaiming our commitment to grow stronger and do better.
The Hannon Theatre Company believes whole-heartedly in a fully-inclusive casting and membership policy. HTC’s producers, directors, and casting committee cast productions in such a manner that a performer's racial or ethnic background does not limit the roles they can be assigned nor do such matters diminish the learning opportunities available to them. We espouse a color-conscious policy in which we recognize the beautiful complexity and intersectionality of student identities. In our selected literature, we choose to celebrate diversity without making any member’s personal identifiers a plot point in our stories. Our paramount objective is to honor every student’s cultural, racial, and gender identity through work which celebrates God’s unconditional love and creative spirit.
