Perimeter School Drama presents Tiny Tim’s Christmas Carol, a clever reimagining of the classic by Charles Dickens. Tiny Tim is determined to have his father home for Christmas Day, even if it means teaching Ebenezer Scrooge a lesson in the Christmas spirit! With the help of some kindly friends from the market, Tiny Tim stages a spectacle Scrooge will never forget!
