Gig Alert: A Christmas Carol
And now for something completely different. Or at least something I have been away from for a few years … acting!
I’ll be portraying Jacob Marley and several other characters in a local production of “A Christmas Carol” this December - four performances only! If rehearsals are any indication, this is going to be a mighty fine production. (OK, I’m a little biased.) Seriously, I’m very fortunate and pleased to be working with such a multi-talented cast and staff. Good stuff.
If you’re within driving/train/walking distance ‘round mid-December and can make a date, do check it out - and be sure to seek me out afterward to say hello. I hope to see you there!
Written in 1843, but still relevant today, Charles Dickens’ immortal classic “A Christmas Carol” will grace the DeBaun stage again this December. It is the story of an old, bitter miser - Ebenezer Scrooge - and the chance for his redemption through the visitation of three timely ghosts and a partner from the past who has learned his lesson too late. With holiday visions to spark wonder and memories for all, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s “A Christmas Carol” as adapted by John Mortimer, will be a new addition to your family tradition.

Ugh. Nasty weekend for us and I don’t think we’ll be able to make it. Rats! I hate to miss one of your rare stage appearances these days.
By the way, your Snoopy is still the standard.
