Aurora Theatre Co-Founder and Producing Artistic Director Anthony Rodriquez announced 2019 would be his final year of performing his one-man version of A Christmas Carol. Not only will he return for this limited-run holiday tradition, but it’s also the first live performance since the temporary closure in March 2020 as a result of the pandemic. Performances will take place in the large Mainstage theatre featuring a drastically reduced audience capacity to 75 seats. The entire family can delight in his one-man rendition of a story of recognition, realization and remission while journeying through the past, present and future of Christmas. Watching Rodriguez embody the classic characters of Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Jacob Marley and the remarkable ghosts, audiences will revel in the spirited truth that unfolds within this timeless tale, commonly recognized as the greatest Christmas story to date! At its heart, this rendition captures the true spirit of Christmas–the joy of giving. Adapted for the stage by Tony Brown and directed by Justin Anderson, this one-man version of the traditional tale is sure to uplift audiences this holiday season. Reduced seating to 75 from 250. Regular show times for Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol are as follows: Dec. 16, 17, 18, 19, 22 and 23 at 8 p.m. Dec. 19, 20 and 23 at 2:30 p.m. |
