Here come those ghosts again. Hillsboro's Bag & Baggage Productions revives director Scott Palmer's adaptation of "A Christmas Carol," this time with Marion Rossi starring as Scrooge.

Reviews of previous productions have noted that this one, which also features author Charles Dickens as a character, is funnier than your average "Carol."

Opens 7:30 p.m. Friday, continues 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays-Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays through Dec. 23, 253 E. Main St., Hillsboro; $20-$27, 503-345-9590, bagnbaggage.org
