Anyone staying in Durham hotels over the holiday season and looking for a way to get into the festive spirit may want to head down to the Performing Arts Center.

On December 15th and 16th, the venue will be staging performances of A Christmas Carol.

This adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic picks up where last year's sold-out show left off.

The Ira David Wood III musical comedy version was cited as "one of the most successful shows in North Carolina theatre history" and voted one of "the top 20 events in the Southeast" by the Southeast Tourism Society.

Anyone who is unfamiliar with North Carolina or has never been to the state before could opt to stay at the Millennium Hotel Durham, as it will help to simplify any travel arrangements

The distance is less than four miles and can be covered with a ten-minute car journey along the 147 S.
