A Christmas Carol: A Live Radio Play Theatre Production
Framed as a Christmas Eve broadcast inside a fictional radio station, the production places the audience in the role of a live studio audience. Attendees watch actors step up to 1940s-style microphones, shifting their voices and postures to portray multiple roles in Scrooge's redemption story. Between scenes, performers frequently break character to present tongue-in-cheek vintage commercials.
