The short answer

The four designated Scrooge Saver dates are November 21 at 8 PM, November 22 at 7 PM, and November 24 and 25 at 7 PM. These early-run performances carry the theatre's official lower-price offer, distinct from other nights and other Kansas City holiday shows.

Which Dates Qualify for Scrooge Saver Pricing?

KCRep has designated four specific performances as Scrooge Saver nights: November 21 at 8 PM, November 22 at 7 PM, November 24 at 7 PM, and November 25 at 7 PM. These are the only shows during the entire November 21–December 24 run that carry the official discounted pricing structure.

Each ticket identifies a particular performance. Choose the date and time you intend to attend rather than treating Scrooge Saver as a pass usable on any of four nights. If you may need a change, read the selected seller’s exchange policy before buying; the offer name does not establish that policy.

These are designated early-run performances, not every date through Christmas Eve. If one fits your calendar, compare that actual offer with the other performances you could attend. Do not assume a promotion’s name establishes the lowest final amount through a different seller.

Making Sure You Book the Right Show

KCRep’s production is the live stage play at Spencer Theatre. The Kansas City Symphony’s Muppet film concert is a separate event at a different hall. Match the presenter and venue as well as the familiar Christmas Carol title.

Before you buy, confirm three details: the venue is Spencer Theatre, the presenter is Kansas City Repertory Theatre, and the format is a live theatrical performance—not a film screening or a touring production. Double-checking these points takes only a moment and ensures you don't accidentally purchase tickets to a different event with a similar name.

Comparing Listed Totals Across Sellers

Scrooge Saver is KCRep’s official dated offer. It does not establish a promotional rate or benefit for a secondary-market listing. Read the actual product and final total for the seat and performance you would buy.

Even when a date qualifies for the official discount, resale inventory may be priced differently depending on demand, seat location, and seller overhead. Focus on the total amount due rather than assuming the listed figure reflects the theatre's promotional rate. Your goal is to identify which combination of date, section, and seller delivers the best value for your budget.

Choosing Between Scrooge Saver and Other Dates

If the four designated dates do not work, compare the other scheduled KCRep performances in the November 21–December 24 run. Check a specific performance, not an assumption that the play is staged every night. Choose an outing your group can actually attend.

There is no verified basis here to promise that later dates cost more or midweek audiences are smaller. Compare current offers for the dates you can use. Your preferred timing and the selected seat may be a better reason to choose a performance than a prediction about prices or crowds.

For another holiday performance decision, our Nutcracker family-ticket guide explains the Ballet’s separate options. If planning both, check each production’s dates independently. The Scrooge Saver dates are in November, not an offer to apply across December outings.

Keep optional discussions separate from admission

KCRep’s event page identifies a roundtable after the November 28 afternoon performance and a separate Prelude before that evening’s show. These are tied to that date, rather than benefits that accompany every Scrooge Saver ticket.

If an added discussion would influence your choice, check its actual time and whether a separate reservation or ticket is required. Decide between the dated offer and another performance based on the experience you want; do not assume an extra listed elsewhere on the event page belongs to your chosen night.

Booking for Each Specific Performance

The linked A Christmas Carol event page identifies November 21. Other eligible performances have their own records: November 22, November 24, November 25. Check the date and curtain time on the actual purchase rather than treating those links as interchangeable.

When you click through to buy, double-check the date and time displayed on the order form. It's easy to have multiple browser tabs open or to click a generic listing that defaults to a different night. Confirming the performance details before you enter payment information prevents confusion and ensures your group arrives on the correct evening.

Finding the Best Fit for Your Group

Start by listing the evenings your entire party is available, then cross-reference that list with the four Scrooge Saver dates. If you land on November 21, 22, 24, or 25, you're in the official discount window. If none of those work, shift your focus to comparing totals across other performances and sellers.

Once you've narrowed your choices, compare the final checkout totals for your preferred date, section, and quantity. That comparison—factoring in all fees and delivery costs—gives you the clearest picture of what you'll actually spend. When you're ready, browse the full range of A Christmas Carol ticket options to find the performance and price point that works best for your holiday plans.

Before you head out

Questions, answered

Can I use one Scrooge Saver ticket on whichever eligible date I choose?

No. Admission is for its named dated performance. Choose November 21, 22, 24 or 25 before buying, and read your seller’s terms if you might need an exchange. The offer name is not a flexible-date pass. Details ↗

Does the Scrooge Saver rate apply to all seats in the theatre?

The official discount structure is tied to the four designated performances, but seat location and section may still affect the base price. Review the seating chart and check the final total at checkout to see how your chosen section is priced. Details ↗

Does every Scrooge Saver ticket include the November 28 discussion?

No. The roundtable and Prelude information concerns November 28, a different date from the four designated Scrooge Saver performances. Check the official instructions if either discussion is part of the visit you want. Details ↗

How do I know I'm booking KCRep's production instead of another Kansas City show?

Confirm the venue is Spencer Theatre at Kansas City Repertory Theatre and the format is a live stage play. Other holiday events with similar titles—such as symphony film concerts—take place at different venues and are separate productions. Details ↗
