Charles Dickens' classic A Christmas Carol is
presented this holiday season in Murphys at 580 S Algiers Street at the Black
Bart Playhouse by Murphys Creek Theatre. Directed by Cyndie Hoffman-Klorer this
talented cast brings this story of light, goodness and charity to the
foothills. Narrated by Sean-Pierre Wilson, the story unfolds as Scrooge
(Stephen Daly), insists that Christmas is a humbug. Neither his lovable nephew,
nor affable solicitors and cheerful carolers can bring the joy of the season to
Scrooge's miserable heart. When his 7 years dead partner Jacob Marley, played
by Allen Test, appears to warn him of his last chance for salvation, Scrooge
finds himself face to face with - himself. It isn't until he sees the pure
kindness of the Cratchit family and the least member of it, Tiny Tim, that
Scrooge begins to understand what is at stake.
