"A Christmas Carol" - performed by great-great grandson of Charles Dickens
“A Christmas Carol”
Great, great grandson
of Charles Dickens will perform A
Christmas Carol on stage at The Clune Center at Wilton High School
On
December 1st, 2013 The Historical Christmas Barn and the Wilton
Historical Society will present A
Christmas Carol at The Clune Center at Wilton High School. This heartwarming show-of-the-season is
performed by Gerald Charles Dickens, the great-great grandson of literary
master, Charles Dickens. Gerald, an
actor and producer hailing from Oxford, England, will be performing his
captivating rendition of this timeless holiday classic.
During his energetic one-man
show, Dickens brings A Christmas Carol
to life. He leaps, he sobs, he laughs…as he entertains…depicting 26 characters
of the classic tale, with just a table, wing chair, and hat rack accompanying
him on stage. He has created different
postures and voices for each character, achieving this so adeptly that the
audience has no doubt about “who is who,” so to speak. It’s a wonderful show--a great family
tradition—and a terrific way kick off the holiday season.
