“Christmas a Humbug….Never!”  LCT will brighten the holidays by presenting this classic tale of a miser’s redemption.   Ebenezer Scrooge is set in his ways, hating Christmas and declaring “all the idiots who go around with Merry Christmas on there lips should be boiled in pudding”.   Despite his contempt for mankind, he is given one last chance to change his ways.  He is haunted by 3 spirits who show him what has been, what is and what will be.  Shown his error, he has a miraculous transformation, and in the end agrees with Tiny Tim when Tim exclaims “God bless us, everyone.”

Produced by Special Arrangement with Dramatic Publishing Company.

Andrew seems to have it all: celebrity from his starring role in a hit television series; a beautiful girlfriend; a devoted agent; and the chance to play Hamlet in Central Park. There are, however, a couple of glitches. His series has been canceled; his girlfriend is clinging to her virginity with unyielding conviction; and he has no desire to play Hamlet. When his agent reminisces about her romance with John Barrymore years ago it prompts a séance to summon his ghost. From the moment Barrymore returns, dressed in high Shakespearean garb, Andrew's life is no longer his own.  Hilarious to the end.
