Amazing
The Christmas Carol has always been one of
my favorite stories growing up. I saw it
tonight with my mom. Such an amazing
show. Everyone did a magnificent job.
Everyone must see this. It brought a tear to
my eye of how well done everyone did
bringing the characters to life. Costumes,
music, dancing everything was on point. All
ages needs to watch this. ... Read more

An old classic revived with modern twist
I am just in awe. As a theater junkie I jumped at the opportunity to go to a play and when this opened I thought , oh well, have seen it a dozen times, but it’s a play. BUT wait. A whole new interpretation. With more character development. And oh my. Timmy. A surprise you won’t want to miss. This is a MUST. No old white man in a kerchief in bed visited by ghosts. It was. Amazing!!! I want to go again!!! ... Read more
