Making up this wild cast are Doug Doughty, Joanne Englehardt, Roselind Farotte, Jason Harris, Joey King. Dave Leon, Dana Morgan, Bruce Pember, Rachel Perry, Michael Perry, John Verela and Christine Wanish
The play is the story of a second rated soapbox playhouse somewhere in the Midwest trying to get a third rate hammy bunch of actors getting a production of A Christmas Carol off the ground ready for an opening in a few days. Everything goes amiss, people involved are mistaken and replaced for other characters finances are questionable and chaos abounds with a lot of laughs and hysteria.
The experienced cast pulls of the satire with great aptitude and gives everyone a relaxing fun time with lots of laughs.
