Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to this commemorative book version of our stage production, Just Emily-an original adaptation, based upon Charles Dickens's classic holiday story, A Christmas Carol. Our rendition differs significantly in many respects from the version most of us are familiar with. Just Emily features an Emily Scrooge who, throughout a rather strange Christmas Eve, is confronted with her past, present, and presumably future.
Through live theater, cinema, and live music, we witness our Emily Scrooge attempt to find some reckoning with her ever-present adversary, time. Emily is "different" and has always been "different"-and with the guidance or misguidance of four well-intentioned but often humorously inept spirits-Emily ultimately finds redemption in the acceptance of herself as she is, as she has always been-and in so doing, Emily, on behalf of her young friend, "Tiny" Tiff, challenges time itself.

Just Emily may be performed without royalties or permissions; rather, please encourage all involved with the production to be kind to all and intentionally engage in a small act of kindness toward someone who is too often excluded, bullied, or may have a very different worldview from that of our own. Thanks.
