“A Christmas Carol” will be presented on December 13th and 14th at 7 p.m. and December 15th at 2 p.m. at the Litchfield Opera House. The classic Charles Dickens play is being directed by Val Chellin.
Chellin says there are 25 people in the cast and they are an unbelievably talented group from Litchfield, Hutchinson, Grove City, Dassel and the surrounding area. She says several familiar Christmas carols will be intertwined with the dialog and there is some humor in the play.
Chellin says there will be refreshments served during intermission, and it’s not a very long play – only about an hour and 15 minutes. She says the Litchfield Opera House is great venue and plays like “A Christmas Carol” are what would have been performed in the Litchfield Opera House back when it was originally open in the early 1900s.
Casey Riebe is in the role of Bob Cratchit, and says tickets are $7 for students and $10 for adults. He says it’s a great family event to attend this holiday season.
Rick Beecroft is in the role of Ebeneezer Scrooge. He says Scrooge is very miserly and does not appreciate Christmas.
Beecroft says Val Chellin is great to work with as the director and there is a great cast and crew for “A Christmas Carol.”
