Invasion: Christmas Carol

Toronto’s newest holiday comedy tradition comes to life at The Assembly Theatre with Invasion: Christmas Carol, produced by Knifefight Theatre.

A faithful yet wildly funny take on Dickens’ classic, the show features six actors playing all the beloved roles — Scrooge, Cratchit, Marley, and the spirits. But each night, a surprise guest “invader” — a beloved member of Toronto’s improv comedy community — crashes the story. Drawn from pop culture, history, or pure imagination, the invader’s job is to throw the story off course, and it’s up to Scrooge and company to weave their antics seamlessly into Dickens’ world.

Expect sharp performances, big laughs, and a different show every night. Saturday matinees are family-friendly with special ticket deals for parents and kids. All other performances are rated PG — perfect for teens and adults who like their holiday theatre with a little extra edge.
