Book Synopsis
"Mr. Scrooge & Mr. Dickens" is a faithful adaptation of the beloved holiday classic "A Christmas Carol" offering several fascinating new embellishments. Charles Dickens, for example, himself appears onstage to narrate the play, reading sections from his manuscript -- primarily passages describing the times and and Victorian England, an aspect generally lost in theatrical productions of the work. There are also many imaginative and wry additions derived principally from Dickens' own prose -- with a few unexpected twists thrown in to keep things new. "Mr. Scrooge & Mr. Dickens"is the perfect way to celebrate the holiday season.
