A Christmas Carol and Bathrobe Festival 
By Daniel McLaughlin, based on the classic by Charles Dickens ​
Directed by Daniel McLaughlin

A CHRISTMAS CAROL, adapted and directed by Daniel McLaughlin, is a new adaptation of Dickens’ timeless classic, a story that captures the warmth and goodwill of the holiday season. And what is a Bathrobe Festival, you ask? It is a UNW tradition and yearly delight for audiences and families of all ages. Students write ten-minute plays and submit them for consideration as companion pieces to our Christmas production. This year, four student plays were chosen and will open the night: 

  • A Hallmark Christmas by Kendra Kispert
  • Give or Take by Thomas Nelson
  • The Night Before Christmas: A Writer's Block Nightmare by Lindsey Schmidt
  • Not a Creature Was Stirring by Wylie White
