True Repertory Theatre Kingston A Christmas Carol in Kingston
True Repertory Theatre will celebrate this holiday season with its original adaptation of A Christmas Carol, by James Sullivan and Donald Sheehan. This production takes a fresh look at the beloved character, Ebenezer Scrooge, in this hour long play with music. In typical True Rep fashion, the focus of this production is on the storytelling. “It is our tradition to reinterpret this Christmas classic every year. Returning audiences find a reinvented version of A Christmas Carol that honors tradition, while keeping it new and exciting,” said Donald Sheehan, Artistic Director of True Rep. James Sullivan, a Braintree playwright whose original, award-winning work, Ellen’s Boys, has delighted True Rep audiences, will be playing Ebenezer Scrooge. “I am thrilled to be back on the stage with such a talented group who give life to a story that will ignite the holiday spirit in the most hard-hearted among
us.”
“This isn’t just a production, it is an event for families to enjoy,” says Victoria Bond, Assoc. Artistic Director. At all matinee performances Mrs. Claus will make cookies for the children to decorate before the show, and Santa will join us after the show, for a visit and a sing-a-long. We will also be auctioning
off some Christmas gift baskets.
The show will perform at The Beal House, 222 Main St. in Kingston, on Dec. 13 & 20 at 7:30PM, Dec.14, 15, & 22 at 3:00PM, and Dec. 21 at 2:00PM, which is also the date of the Luminaries, for those who would like to have a full day of holiday celebration in Kingston.
