Sarah Milnamow (Grinch, Crossroads Live!) will play Mrs. Cratchit, joined by Bill Mootos* (“The Holdovers”) as Timothy, along with Angelina Bolentini, Isabel Gonzalez Webster, Samarth Shenoy, and Charlotte Siebels, as the Cratchit children. Associate directors Steve Gagliastro* (“Spirited”) and Annie Kerins* (The Crucible, THT Rep) play the Fezziwigs, joined by Dan Prior* as Fred, Laura D. DeGiacomo* as Millie, Fred's wife, Amy Barker* (Merrily We Roll Along, Huntington Theatre) as the Charwoman, Aidan Levinson (Pippin, Studio Theatre At Tierra Del Sol) as Young Ebenezer, Maggie Clark as Belle, Tyler Simahk* as Topper, Shelly Fawson as Suzannah, Channing Rion as Lucy, Marta Rymer* (American Mariachi, Two River Theater) as Laundress, and Andy McLeavey* (Commonwealth Shakespeare Company) as Dick Wilkins.
