What did our critic think of HANAKKAH SCHMANUKKAH at Burbage Theatre Company? If you're tired of the same old Christmas plays every year, you may just find what you are looking for in this original, world premiere engagement of Hanukkah Schmanukkah at the Burbage Theatre Company.

Het begint dé kersttraditie van het Wilminktheater en Muziekcentrum Enschede te worden: de kerstmusical Scrooge. Ook dit jaar wordt de zaal speciaal omgebouwd voor het magische verhaal van de rijke Ebenezer Scrooge, gespeeld door acteur Finn Poncin. “Scrooge is eigenlijk Finn op z’n chagrijnigst.”

Arizona Theatre Company's adaptation of SCROOGE! ~ the most notable element missing in this largely unsuccessful adaptation is any sense of a true Dickensian backdrop. Runs through December 30th.

On Saturday, December 9th, at 2:00 PM, I had the pleasure of attending my favorite annual theatrical tradition, A CHRISTMAS CAROL EXPERIENCE, as performed by Fairfield Center Stage, at Burr Mansion in Fairfield, CT.  In my youth, I have appeared in three stage productions of A Christmas Carol.  I have seen numerous movie versions, whether animated or otherwise.  I have also seen it on stage.  Fairfield Center Stage, however, has found a brilliantly unique new way of presenting this timeless classic story, while staying true to the original.  In A CHRISTMAS CAROL EXPERIENCE, the audience moves from location to location inside and outside of Burr Mansion, following Ebenezer Scrooge and the other characters from scene to scene.  I am convinced that the absolute best live performance of this timeless story that has impacted generations, internationally, is this one annually performed by Fairfield Center Stage.  This is a wonderful experience all-around!  The direction of Kevin Pelkey, choreography of Lindsay Johnson, songwriting and musical direction of Clay Zambo, and stellar performances by this spectacular ensemble cast all combine to bring life to this phenomenal adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic, adapted by artistic director Christy-McIntosh Newsom.
