Collins Center Cancels ‘A Christmas Carol’ After Bus Crash

Ticket holders for tonight's performance of 'A Christmas Carol' at the Collins Center can get refunds after a bus crash forced the cancellation of the show.

The bus accident on I-95 in Burnham on Tuesday night involved the Nebraska-based cast of the show. Police say the driver fell asleep behind the wheel as the bus traveled to Orono from Schenectady, New York. Four of the cast members sustained minor injuries, but they were enough to force the cancellation of the performance.

Staff members at the Collins Center for the Arts are working to contact ticket holders, so they can issue refunds. Anyone who paid with a credit card, the charges have already been refunded. People who paid with a check will be contacted to determine the best way to refund the ticket costs.
