Scrooge MacBeth at The Off-Central

Right on the heels of the sublimely satirical existential hit No Exit, The Off-Central Players shift to the silly, hilarious and ridiculous.

Currently in rehearsal and running December 7th through December 17, The OCP presents David MacGregor’s comedy, Scrooge Macbeth.

In this play directed by Ward Smith, it’s opening night for the Heartland County Players holiday production of Shakespeare’s, The Winter’s Tale. A food poisoning outbreak sidelines all but four cast members (skillfully played David Warner, Melissa Misener, Tracey Reynolds and Troy Brooks). With an expectant audience just outside the doors, can these four amateur thespians concoct some kind of holiday entertainment? Imagine if Ebeneezer Scrooge showed up on Juliet’s balcony or Hamlet went Christmas shopping? The play fills the audience with holiday cheer while poking a little fun at the world’s most famous writer. With this hilarious and violent collision between everything Christmas and everything Shakespeare, you will never think of the Bard and the Holidays in quite the same way again.
