Isn’t That The Dickens with Jay Wilson

East Side Branch

Join us for a delightful, entertaining evening as Jay Wilson transforms Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” into a poem called “Isn’t That The Dickens”. Register each person attending. 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. Register each adult attending.
