Nov. 11, 2021 – The Lyric Theatre of Oklahoma will once again raise money for the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma during its run of “A Christmas Carol.” For the past 10 years, “A Christmas Carol” audiences have contributed nearly $200,000 to the Regional Food Bank.

For the second year, the Nov. 17 through Dec. 23 performances will be held outdoors at the historic Harn Homestead, 1721 N. Lincoln in Oklahoma City. Harn Homestead will be reimagined as the Victorian era setting for the 75-minute performance as audiences will be guided from scene to scene at the homestead.

“Lyric Theatre’s production of “A Christmas Carol” is one of the best holiday traditions in the metro,” said Stacy Dykstra, chief executive officer of the Regional Food Bank. “We are so grateful to Lyric Theatre and their patrons, whose generosity has made a real impact in the fight against hunger in Oklahoma.”

Since 2011, Lyric Theatre patrons have donated $194,700 to the Regional Food Bank. The 2020 production of “A Christmas Carol” at Harn Homestead received praise from both The New York Times and BBC News for being among a select number of theatres in the world staging the holiday favorite.

The production is staged in the open air to allow audiences to social distance. Each performance is limited to 200 guests.

Tickets for “A Christmas Carol” are available at LyricTheatreOKC.org or by calling Lyric’s box office at 405-524-9312.
