    A fun retelling of Scrooge and A Christmas Carol. Highlighted are Feeny-Williams' voice and vision in the dialogue as well as efficient staging. Strongly recommended for December programming.

    As a devotee of the original book, I am always intrigued by updates to Dickens' classic tale. This play is the best by a mile. Rachel Feeny-Williams updates "A Christmas Carol" with new characters, new genders and (importantly) new jokes. But she keeps the themes of the original intact, imbuing them with new urgency and relevance for modern audiences. I heard a fantastic production of this play on Feeny-Williams' "Theatrical Shenanigans" podcast and loved it. Check it out; you will too.

    Rachel Feeny-Williams' UNTITLED CHRISTMAS PRODUCTION takes the Dickens classic, modernizes it, swaps some gender roles, adds some slapstick, and delivers a delightful adaptation for those looking for a fun alternative to their holiday lineup.
