Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol Brings Warmth and Life to Aurora Theatre, November 28-December 21


Spirited Solo Performance Captures the True Meaning of Holiday Season

The annual holiday classic, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, is returning to Aurora Theatre for its eighth consecutive year, November 28-December 21. In true storytelling fashion, audiences travel back to 19th century England for an incredibly personal and moving one-man version of the cherished story that grasps the true meaning of the holiday season – the joy of giving. Starring Aurora veteran Anthony P. Rodriguez as the cold and bitter Ebenezer Scrooge with direction by Tony Brown, audiences are invited to rediscover Dickens’ oft-told tale that has touched hearts for more than 150 years.

Many think of A Christmas Carol as a huge theatrical production, but the beauty of our version is the simplicity behind it,” said Anthony Rodriguez, Aurora Theatre Producing Artistic Director. “Before the novel was brought to stage, Dickens actually read the story at Christmas parties in England as entertainment, which is why the one-man show works.”

 

The intimate Aurora Theatre Studio is transformed to make audiences feel as though they’ve been personally invited into Mr. Dickens’ parlor. The scene is set as a brisk Christmas Eve, when Marley pays a visit to his old business partner, Mr. Scrooge. Through mannerisms and voice alone, Rodriguez brings the characters of Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Jacob Marley and the remarkable ghosts to life before audience members’ eyes. Throughout the play, audiences witness the change of “Bah-humbug” Scrooge through scenes from his own life and revisit the splendor of what makes A Christmas Carol one of the greatest Christmas stories of all time.

The hard work and guidance of Director Tony Brown sets his adaption of A Christmas Carol apart from other renditions. Bringing the tale to life is the design team of Britt Hultgren Ramroop (set), James M. Helms (lights), Daniel Terry (sound/ technical director), Alan Yeong (costumes), and Sarah Thomson (scenic artist).
