The Experience: Victorian London in the Heart of San Diego

Tucked into Boulevard Hall along the El Cajon Boulevard corridor in City Heights, the event transforms an urban venue into the foggy, atmospheric streets of 19th-century London. Expect an intimate, fast-paced staging where Ebenezer Scrooge, Jacob Marley, and the trio of Christmas spirits emerge around you.
Instead of traditional theater seating with a program in hand, your ticket pairs every narrative beat with a custom craft cocktail poured table-side.
