Description
Adapted from the timeless novel by Charles Dickens by playwright Joe Landry, with music by Kevin Connors, this family-friendly version (approximately 45-60 minutes) will recreate for live audiences the high-wire, high-spirited energy of a '40s-era radio troupe, complete with music and sound effects generated onstage and in the booth. Presented as a Christmas Eve installment of WBFR's weekly “Playhouse of the Air” series, "A Christmas Carol" serves up the timeless story of Ebenezer Scrooge, the inveterate miser from London who learns the meaning of charity and kindness over the course of one miraculous Christmas Eve, complete with visitations by three Ghosts of Christmas (Past, Present and Future), a heartwarming reconciliation with his nephew Fred and, of course, a surprise gift and visit to the Cratchits, where he's welcomed by his longtime clerk Bob and his resilient and irrepressible son, the one and only Tiny Tim.
