"A Christmas Carol" was written by Charles Dickens in 1843 and beginning in 1857, he performed public readings of this holiday classic.

His readings were so popular that people camped overnight in the streets to buy tickets. In Washington D.C., President Andrew Johnson had tickets for his family every night. A newspaper wrote at the time, “He gave to every character a different voice, a different style, a different face.”

Lyndhurst is at 635 South Broadway, Tarrytown.
