About the Production

This "one man production" is based on the American Reading Tour that Dickens performed in the late 1800’s in which he portrayed all of the beloved characters from his holiday classic. Dickens - always a theatrical showman - traveled with his own scenery and lighting equipment throughout his tour. This production - presented over 150 years later - explores how Dickens might present the show using the theatre technology of today: LED Lighting, Projections, Sound Effects, and More. Presented by one actor as Charles Dickens playing all of the over 55 beloved characters in Dickens’ classic, this production was originally presented virtually in 2020 and then went on to a very successful tour around the Midwest in 2021.
