A Festive Evening

with Jay Wilson

Enjoy a merry evening where Jay Wilson shares his version of Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol”. Create a festive green arrangement and stove top scents for your home. Please register. For adults.

Storyteller Jay Wilson transforms Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” into a poem called “Isn’t That The Dickens”. Complete with Scrooge, Cratchit, Tiny Tim and of course all the ghosts, this novella becomes “theatre of the mind” Think of it as a radio play. Add wind, doors slamming, ticking clocks, rattling chains and assorted spooky sounds and you have yourself a new twist on a Christmas tradition. Delightful, amusing and entertaining.

This program is for adults. Please register each adult attending.
