What is Bah! Humbug! about?

Harry Gruber is thrilled to play Scrooge in his school's production of 'A Christmas Carol.' However, he's anxious because his workaholic father, Ray, is attending. During the performance, Ray's obsession with work mirrors Scrooge's neglect, leading to a heartfelt realisation about family and priorities. This modern retelling of Dickens's classic blends humour and warmth, highlighting the importance of togetherness during the festive season.
