A Klingon Christmas Carol on Stage!

A Chicago stage production of Charles Dickens classic "A Christmas Carol" with a Star Trek twist - spoken in Klingon! A poster states to the public "Scrooge has no honour, nor any courage."

Klingon ( or "thingan Hol" in that language) was developed back in 1984 by linguist Marc Okrand when Star Trek III: The Search for Spock."

The miserly alien warrior known as SQuja' (aka Scrooge) is visited by three holiday ghosts during the Klingon Feast of the Long Night.

The play itself was written by Christopher O. Kidder and Sasha Walloch.
