A CHRISTMAS CAROL Runs At Eichelberger Loft 12/10-12/27
by BWW News Desk
- Dec 27, 2009
Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol will be performed from December 10 - December 27. The show is adapted by Leigh Allan and Scott Stoney and has music arranged by Gregg Coffin.
The 2008 premiere of this adaptation of the Dickens classic, designed especially for The Loft, was such a hit we?re making it a holiday tradition. Catch the spirit, and the spirits, as a Christmas party brings forth the tale of Scrooge's evolution from the grim miser of bah and humbug to a light-hearted spreader of joy. It?s a production true to the original, but with a new twist or two to add to the fun plus a wealth of delightful Christmas caroling.
