A Dickens of a Tour: Charles Dickens in Washington December 15, 2012

This brilliant writer paid two visits to the Nation’s Capitol and his reviews of the two stays couldn’t have differed more! Shortly after his first visit he penned “A Christmas Carol”. Is it possible that he created Mr. Scrooge after meeting a Citizen of old Washington City? And, did his understanding and appreciation of Judaism change after his stay with a Washington family? Ponder that thought as you walk in his footsteps. You’ll also witness scenes from his classic Holiday tale, " A Christmas Carol", performed where he stood over 160 years ago. Learn Victorian Holiday traditions and The Cratchit Family Recipe. Accessible and fun.
Tour dates: December 15th, 22nd and 23rd at noon. Tickets online at www.historicstrolls.com or from Mrs. Cratchit at the tour (exact change brings a curtsey )
