Milwaukee Repertory Theater presents Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol written by Tom Mula, produced and recorded in the Quadracci Powerhouse and available for streaming DECEMBER 10 - 24, 2020.

The brand new production stars renowned actor Lee E. Ernst, and features an original soundscape by foley artist Dan Kazemi and direction by Mark Clements. Audiences around the world can enjoy Milwaukee's favorite holiday tradition from the comfort of home for $20 per household.

The creative team of the fully realized production of Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol includes direction by Artistic Director Mark Clements, music director and foley artist Dan Kazemi (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, West Side Story, Milwaukee Rep), set design by Arnold Bueso (Freaky Friday, PCPA), costume design by Alexander B. Tecoma (West Side Story, Milwaukee Rep), lighting design by Jason Fassl (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Milwaukee Rep), sound design by Andre J. Pluess (The Minutes, Steppenwolf), dialect coaching by Gale Childs Daly (A Christmas Carol, Milwaukee Rep) and production associates Kimberly Carolus and Becca Lindsey.

Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol is a one-person adaptation by Tom Mula that embodies the very heart of the beloved holiday classic celebrating love, hope and redemption. Lee E. Ernst returns to Milwaukee Rep having played nearly 100 memorable roles, including Vince Lombardi (Lombardi), The Emcee (Cabaret), Atticus Finch (To Kill a Mockingbird) and Willy Loman (Death of a Salesman). Now a company member at Resident Ensemble Players at University of Delaware, Ernst is also a former company member at American Players Theatre in Spring Green, WI.

Originally approved to be performed in front of a live audience in the Quadracci Powerhouse by all four theatrical unions, in person performances of Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol were cancelled due to an increase in COVID-19 cases and in response to the City of Milwaukee's Public Health Order establishing Phase 4.2 of the Moving Milwaukee Forward Safely Plan.

Milwaukee Rep has partnered with HMS Media, a 20-time Emmy Award-winning multimedia company specializing in the broadcast of live performance, to capture Jacob Marley's Christmas Carol from the Quadracci Powerhouse stage with multiple, high-definition cameras and produce the digital recording that can be streamed worldwide DECEMBER 10 - 24, 2020.
