Farmers Alley Presents “A Christmas Carol”
- This event has passed.
A HOLIDAY CLASSIC with a modern twist for the whole family!
It wouldn’t be Christmas without A CHRISTMAS CAROL and Patrick Barlow (author of the hilarious THE 39 STEPS) takes Dickens’ classic story of greed, grief, ghoulish ghosts and eleventh-hour redemption and makes it feel brand new again.
Coming off the heels of the enormously popular and completely sold-out production of Jersey Boys, Farmers Alley Theatre invites you to feel the holiday cheer by coming to see a new version of A Christmas Carol. Patrick Barlow, writer of the Broadway and West End hit The 39 Steps, has retold Charles Dickens’ holiday classic, and this unique production is filled with music, puppetry, pantomime, and farce and uses only five actors to bring some of Dickens’ most beloved characters to life. From Tiny Tim to Bob Cratchit to the 3 ghosts, Barlow’s A Christmas Carol uses nothing more than some simple props, fresh physicality, and the power of imagination to convey this timeless story of redemption. Witness Ebenezer Scrooge’s transformation from a stingy miser to a man who generously celebrates the spirit of the season all year long, in this highly theatrical adaptation perfect for the whole family.
Directed by Christopher Llewyn Ramirez (Native Gardens) and featuring Mark Jaynes (WMU alum) as Scrooge and playing all the other characters are: Kim Krane (WMU alum), Christopher Eastland, Nikki Yarnell and William Anthony Sebastian Rose II.
