Chicago exec rented out Goodman Theatre so kids can see ‘A Christmas Carol’ for free

What a Christmas gift over 800+ students received when they got to attend a performance of, “A Christmas Carol,” at The Goodman Theatre for free.

Chicago businessperson, Martin J. Koldyke, has made an effort to allow students to experience the arts as he continued his tradition of sending students to see the famed Chicago show.  On Thursday, Koldyke rented all 850+ Goodman Theatre seats for a show for the kids.  To date, the Chicago exec has paid for tickets so that more than 12,000 students could see ‘A Christmas Carol’ at The Goodman Theatre.  Martin J. Koldyke is certainly no Scrooge!
