From the Press Release:
Charles Dickens’s beloved holiday story is brought to life in a tour de force solo performance by Lenard Petit, known to Mile Square Theatre audiences for his stunning portrayal in the title role of MST’s 2003 production of Cyrano. In A Christmas Carol Mr. Petit appears as the spirit of Charles Dickens, who in the reading of his classic novella, creates a magical world of characters, from past, present, and future, and brings to life this time-tested story of a cold-hearted miser who finds redemption on Christmas Eve. With original music composed and performed by Sean Hagerty.
