— Josh Rubin, Dec 20, 2025
"Ari Tarr... [delivered] remarkable, rapid-fire exchanges between Scrooge and characters such as his nephew, Cratchit, etc."
— Chuck Webster, MD, Dec 22, 2024
"Ari Tarr as Charles Dickens was particularly suburb [sic] during the narration of the tale"
— Elizabeth Tasker, Dec 22, 2024

"While muted during the performance, the narrator was excellent at making the audience feel included. Scene changes dissolved and reappeared around you, while the door knocker that became Marley's face enlarged to terrifying proportions! While the sets in #AChristmasCarolVR were similar to those on stage, there were several simple but very effective special effects that leveraged the virtual space."
— Elizabeth Tasker, Dec 22, 2024
"It was ingenious. The audience were small sprites. We were immersed in the flow of the story and we were addressed by the narrator."
— Dave the Turner, June 18, 2025
"It was fascinating to see the affordances of VR used in this way. I'd love to see more VR plays done like this."

— César Chiffre, Dec 20, 2025
"This morning I saw A Christmas Carol VR, which was a live production of the Dickens classic in VR! Social VR experiences (for me) have the excitement of computer games in the 1980s: the technology is accessible enough to reach a wide audience, and the limitations are a driver for a ton of innovation."
— Elizabeth Tasker, Dec 22, 2024
"Nice acting & it was curious how avatar switching really framed my attention (always an issue in VR). Nice use of scenes too. Our avatars as tiny colored balls brought a smile and memories."
— SteveG67, June 21, 2025

— Clare Naïlo, Dec 12, 2025
