Theatre Etiquette
Seeing a live performance can be very exciting. The
connection between the performers on stage and audience
members can be very powerful. The cast and crew of a show
work hard to make sure they give their best performance.
Audience members help the performers give their best
performance by being respectful and following theatre
etiquette rules.
Etiquette: Good manners and respectful behavior.
Basic Theatre Etiquette
Arrive to the theater on time; being early is being on time.
Visit the restroom before the show begins.
Turn off your cell phones, iPods, Game Boys and other electronics that make
noise.
Pay attention to announcements that are made prior to the show.
Do not speak during the show. Whispering is still speaking.
Do not eat or drink in the theater.
Do not put your feet up on the seats.
Do not kick the seat in front of you.
Remain in your seat for the entire show. If you must leave, do it during a
break or intermission.
Laugh when the performance is funny.
Applaud when the show is over; this tells the actors and crew that you liked
the show.
Stand and applaud if you thought the show was great.

Dear Bob,

I am sorry that I have been
unfair to you. I was wrong to
make you work in a cold office,
and I should have given you more
than one day off each year. You
are an honest and hard-working
man. I hope you will accept my
apology and allow me to earn
your trust.
I also want to thank you and
your family for being kind to me
on Christmas Day. It was the
best Christmas I have ever
celebrated.

A Christmas Carol
Discussion Questions
A Christmas Carol was originally written in 1843 and has since been adapted into countless
plays, movies, children’s books, cartoons, etc. Here at the Hippodrome we have produced A
Christmas Carol every year for the past 34 years. Why do you think this story stands the test of
time? Why do you think this story is important to tell?
Why is Mr. Fezziwig, a fairly small role in the play, such an important part of Scrooge’s life?
Each ghost that visits Scrooge behaves and looks very differently, why is this? What does each
ghost symbolize to Scrooge? Do they symbolize something else to you?
Which ghost do you think had the greatest effect on Scrooge? Why?
Why does Charles Dickens use ghosts in the story at all? What do they
represent?
Charles Dickens was very thoughtful in selecting his characters’ names. Why did
he name his character Ebenezer Scrooge? When you hear the name Scrooge does
it evoke an emotion? Why did he use the name Cratchit, Fezziwig or Belle?
A Christmas Carol can be considered a “morality tale,” a story intended to teach
readers or viewers a lesson about how to be a better person. What is the lesson
Scrooge learns in A Christmas Carol? What other stories do you know that teach
us how to be better people? What are the morals or lessons taught by those
stories?
The Grinch can be considered the twentieth century Scrooge. How do the two characters
compare? Are their stories similar? Do they share the same message and themes? How are the
two stories different?
A Christmas Carol
Vocabulary
Ali Baba: Scrooge, when visiting his younger self, mentions Ali Baba as a favorite childhood
story. Ali Baba is a fictional character from medieval Arabic literature.
Almshouses: Charitable housing provided to enable people (typically elderly people who can no
longer work to earn enough to pay rent) to live in a particular community.
Apparition: Another word to describe a ghost. When Marley appears before Scrooge, Scrooge
uses this word to describe Marley’s sudden, frightening appearance.
Benevolence: A disposition to do good deeds; generous. Marley tells scrooge that he needed to
be benevolent in life, instead of greedy and miserly.
Bob: Slang word for a shilling, a unit of currency in England during the Victorian era. It is worth
approximately 12 pennies.
Christmas Pudding: A traditional English dessert served on Christmas day made of steamed
fruits, nuts, suet (raw mutton fat), spices and a little bit of brandy. Also called plum pudding for
its dark color.
Covetous: An intense desire for wealth and possessions. Marley uses this word to describe the
greedy Scrooge.
Dowry: This refers to the money, goods or estate that a wife would bring to her husband when
they got married. When Belle refers to herself as “dowerless” girl, she is indicating that she
doesn’t have the wealth to bring to a marriage, and Scrooge would never choose a dowerless girl.
Executor: A person responsible for the money and property of another person who has died, as
in the ‘executor of a will’. Scrooge was the executor of Marley’s money.
Farthing, Shilling, Crown, Sixpence: These are all units of currency in Great Britain during the
early to mid-1800s.
Fettered: A fetter is a chain or shackle placed around the feet. This is referring to Marley being
shackled with the chain he forged in life.
Flamboyant: A showy or dashing display. Marley’s entrance at the beginning of the play
includes flashy lights, sound effects, etc., a grand entrance.
Forbearance: Forgiveness. The word is used by Marley as one of the traits he lacked while
alive; i.e., he needed to be more forgiving and lenient.
Girded: Encircled with a flexible band, or a chain; belted. Marley says that
the chain around his body was girded by his deeds while alive.
Humbug: They way Scrooge uses “humbug” is referring to nonsense or
rubbish.
Incessant: Continuing without interruption. Marley tells Scrooge that the
pain of wandering as a ghost is incessant.
“Jack Robinson”: The phrase means a very short span of time, like ‘lickety’split’. Mr.
Fezziwig says to the young Scrooge: “Let’s have the shutters up before a man can say ‘Jack
Robinson’!”
Millinery: Martha works in the millinery business which means she makes and sews hats.
;
Morose: Having a sullen or gloomy disposition. Fred tells Scrooge that he is rich, and therefore
has no reason to be morose.
Odious: This word means deserving of hatred; horrible. Mrs. Cratchit calls Scrooge odious and
refuses to drink his health during Christmas dinner.
Ogre: A hideous giant from fairytales (i.e. Shrek), or a dreaded, unlikable person. The Cratchit
children think Scrooge is an ogre because he is so stingy and mean.
Palpable: Capable of being touched or felt. Bob Cratchit uses this word to describe the dense,
sooty air of Victorian London which was dirty from coal burning stoves and machines.
Phantom: A ghost or other being with no physical body. Marley uses this word to describe
himself to the audience.
Precepts: A rule, commandment or required action. The Ghost of Christmas Past tells Scrooge
that he must go to all the places where people are suffering because that is his precept.
Poor Law and Union Workhouses: The New Poor Law of 1834; this law established a system
of regional workhouses for debtors. The workhouses were awful places – poorly ventilated and
overcrowded; the guards were often brutal and many poor people would rather die than go to a
workhouse.
Reclamation: The act of getting something back. The Ghost of Christmas Past refers to
reclaiming Scrooge’s soul before it is too late, and he becomes like Marley.
Robinson Crusoe: A book written in 1719 by Daniel Defoe, telling the story of the lone
survivor of a shipwreck who lives on an island with a native companion he calls “Friday.”
Situation: In the context of A Christmas Carol, situation is used to mean a job or form of
employment.
Specter: Another word for ghost, a specter is a visible disembodied spirit. Scrooge uses this
word when talking to the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come, who shows Scrooge the terrible
things that will happen if he does not change his life.
Squalling: A squall is a violent wind, often associated with rain or
snow. Scrooge uses this word to describe the loud, tear-filled
wailing of a baby.
“Straight from the bakers”: The Cratchits, like many poor
people of 19th century London, had no oven in their home, only a
fire place. Mrs. Cratchit had to pay the baker to cook her goose.
Treadmill: A Victorian torture device, like a giant hamster wheel for humans. Convicts were
required to walk on the wheel for six hours at a time taking large steps – or risk having their foot
crushed by the wheel.
