Poster in Progress

So, this is the first of my two designs for the poster for A Christmas Carol. Now, the assignment:

• Attention: I guess the big, red, Scrooge-shaped thing in the corner would draw people's eyes. The flame on the dot of the 'i' in 'christmas' might do something to it as well.
• Iconography: Well, Scrooge himself would probably count as an icon.
• Interest: This poster doesn't have a lot of it, but that's mostly because everyone knows the story already.
• Appeal: Anyone who's a fan of the story or wants to take their kids to see a classic will probably want to see this. So, yeah, it's got the whole "timeless classic" appeal.
• Style: Well, I tried to make this consistent with the tone of the play; that is, dark and brooding, but still with a sense of Christmas about it.

So, yeah, that's it. Any suggestions for improvement?
