"A Christmas Carol" Show Seeks Boys and Girls
Looking for kids ages 5 and up for "A Christmas Carol" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: A well-known tradition in the Coastal Bend area! Harbor Playhouse's annual production of A Christmas Carol is a spectacular adaptation of Charles Dickens' most well-known story and is a must-see event for the holidays. Ebenezer Scrooge is a prosperous curmudgeon who believes that personal wealth is far more valuable than the happiness and comfort of others. With an infuriated "Bah! Humbug!" Scrooge summates his feelings of Christmas tidings and charitable giving, but he's forced to face his selfish ways when three ghosts on Christmas Eve lead him through his Past, Present and Future. Thanks to their guidance, Scrooge recognizes his faults and greets Christmas morning with a cheerful "Happy Christmas" before spending the day reconnecting and sharing love with those that mean the most to him. Additional info: All auditioners will be asked to sing one of the provided music selections and to participate in a dance audition.
