Powerhouse Theatre in Vernon, Canada, hosts "A 1940s Radio Christmas Carol," a unique holiday production that immerses audiences in a live radio broadcast setting from the Second World War era. The story revolves around the fictional Feddington Players attempting to perform Charles Dickens' classic "A Christmas Carol" on air.

The performance is characterized by an engaging blend of comedy and drama, as the troupe navigates technical glitches, actor disagreements, and wartime anxieties, forcing them to improvise. This creates a "hilarious, heartwarming, and chaotic mix" that incorporates elements such as vintage carols, period-specific fake commercials, and even film noir detours, all while conveying a message of togetherness and hope during challenging times.

The play is scheduled to run nightly from November 19 to November 29, 2026, at the Powerhouse Theatre.
