- HIGH POINT, N.C.-- The North Carolina Shakespeare Festival offers a wholesome and powerful family theatre experience this December with its 35th annual professional production of A Christmas Carol (2012), the Charles Dickens classic that brings legendary Scrooge face to face with a series of ghosts and, ultimately, a profound revelation that captures the heart of the season.
The festival's production, a perennial favorite of Piedmont Triad and North Carolina audiences, runs Dec. 5-23 at the High Point Theatre, 220 E. Commerce Ave., in downtown High Point. Public performances take place Thursdays through Sundays, with all evening shows beginning at 7:30 p.m. and all Saturday/Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. The opening night performance takes place Friday, Dec. 14, following a week of previews.
Beyond Dickens' moving tale and cast of unforgettable characters, the production features rousing music, beautiful costumes and a stunning set -- all designed to transport theatergoers into a 19th century London full of fog, ghosts and an overwhelming spirit of Christmas and love.
Pedro Silva, the festival's artistic and managing director, who played Scrooge for many seasons, will direct the play for the 10th time.
The cast is made up of a total of 29 professional and community actors, including several local children and teens appearing in their first professional production. Michael Huie of Winston-Salem returns for the fourth year in the lead role of Ebenezer Scrooge.
The North Carolina Shakespeare Festival's 2011 production of A Christmas Carol included a one-night-only benefit performance featuring Pedro Silva as Ebenezer Scrooge. This scene also includes Duke Ernsberger as Bob Cratchet and Mark Allen Woodard as Fred.
I miss the songs from this. It was our every year tradition. :( "Christmas time is a time, time of great cheer!"
Used to go with my mom to see this play every year, such a shame that the production company went bankrupt.
