Dad's Garage Brings INVASION: CHRISTMAS CAROL Back to the Stage
by BWW News Desk - November 17, 2016
After a two-year break, our favorite Christmas tradition is back as Invasion Christmas Carol returns to the Dad's Garage stage. This hybrid improv-scripted show turns the classic Dickens story into a hilarious, improvised mess. In addition to the story's regular cast, a new and different character visits Scrooge every evening--which is a complete surprise to the cast. We let our guest improvisers go crazy, and these invading characters could be anyone from The Incredible Hulk, to Santa Claus, to Martha Stewart. You'll see Scrooge's past, present, and future unfold in a new way each night. Watch our cast of actors try to perform the traditional Christmas Carol while trying to deal with the one improviser running around stage causing havoc. It is a beautiful disaster that you're not going to want to miss.
