For decades, the Guthrie Theater has presented "A Christmas Carol" to mark the start of the holiday season. The Dickens classic returned to the stage last month with a new adaptation, and for many of the actors, it was their first time back on the stage — with a live audience — since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our producer Lindsay Guentzel sat down last week with two of the actors — Regina Marie Williams and Rajané Katurah — to find out what it’s been like to be back in person with such a beloved holiday story.
