"Scrooge? I have to redeem old Scrooge? The one man I knew who was worse than I was? Impossible!"

The style of the play is "story theater," which means that the actors speak both dialogue and narrative, usually performing the action as they discribe it.

   

So begins the real story behind Dickens' A Christmas Carol—the story of Jacob Marley's heroic behind-the-scenes efforts to save old Scrooge's soul—and in the process, save his own. Aided by a Bogle, a malicious little hell-sprite with an agenda of his own, their hilarious journey takes them from the Jaws of Death to the Mouth of Hell—and beyond! This irreverent, funny, and ultimately, deeply moving story retells Dickens' classic with warmth and infectious zest!

Tom Mula has created more than an outstanding tribute to the Dickens' original; he has created a modern classic in its own right. Jacob Marley's case is taken up with humor and sensitivity as we follow his personal journey to redeem his former partner, Ebenezer Scrooge. With enormous insight, JACOB MARLEY'S CHRISTMAS CAROL is a funny yet touching tribute to Dickens' timeless classic.

   

"Delectably zany... inspired theatre... gives the audience cause to ache, and to laugh, and in the end, to exhalt."

-Citybeat-

"It's great fun, and audience pleaser filled with laughs and capped with, of course, a happy ending ..."

-Chicago Tribune-
