Listen and enjoy the The Campbell Playhouse performance, December 24, 1939, starring Lionel Barrymore, one of America's greatest stage and screen actors, as Ebenezer Scrooge, Orson Welles, and actors of The Mercury Theatre on the Air. This performance is considered by radio historians as the classic telling of this timeless tale.
