Name:‘A Christmas Carol: A Radio Play’ Coming to Tarleton’s Clyde H. Wells Fine Arts Center
Date:November 29, 2023
Time:7:30 PM - 9:30 PM CST
Event Description:
The Tarleton State University Department of Fine Arts presents a new twist on a holiday classic with “A Christmas Carol: A Radio Play.” The curtain rises for the first of five performances at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 29, in the auditorium of the Clyde H. Wells Fine Arts Center.
Admission is $10 for adults; $8 for seniors, children and faculty; and $5 for students with a Tarleton ID.
The Charles Dickens holiday classic comes to life as a live 1940s radio broadcast, complete with vintage commercials and the magic of live sound effects and musical underscoring. Tarleton theater students and community actors bring dozens of characters to the stage as the familiar story unfolds: Three ghosts take Ebenezer Scrooge on a thrilling journey to teach him the true meaning of Christmas.
The production is also set for 7:30 p.m. shows Nov. 30-Dec. 1, then 2 p.m. matinees Dec. 2 and 3.
