A Christmas Carol Reviews

The Boston Globe - Recommended

"...By the time we get to the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come (Damon Singletary, manipulating a gargantuan puppet), we know the emotional beats of the story, and despite my cold, critical heart, the sight of Tiny Tim’s lonely crutches still elicited a tear. But in this production, I am drawn into the power and emotional delivery of the 18 Christmas carols this company performs so charmingly, rather than Dickens’s story of redemption."

Joyce's Choices - Highly Recommended

"...A new holiday treat has arrived on the Boston scene — an enduring story which never fails to move me. It cuts right through the Christmas chaos, and gets to the heart of the season: CHARLES DICKENS’ A CHRISTMAS CAROL. Commonwealth Shakespeare Company’s inaugural production of this touching tale, is an instant classic! Company artistic director Steven Maler has assembled Boston’s finest players onstage at the beautiful Emerson Cutler Majestic, a perfect backdrop for this timeless and timely Victorian fable set on Christmas Eve."
