Synopsis

A Christmas Carol

Tom Wood from Charles Dickens

Published by Cyberpress

Large Mixed Cast
From the Author:

"Dickens asks us what it takes for a man, (and by extension the world) to change. He presents us with an old, bitter, hate-filled protagonist and proceeds to chart his painful passage from darkness to light

It was upon this idea of "change" that I based this adaptation and also a determination to stay true to the original story

I resolved to tell this story as dramatically as possible with out reverting to tricks or narration, which I feel tends to distance the audience from direct involvement with the characters."

CAST
M5,F8 + A Chorus of Children (12-18)
