The spirits of the holiday season will be in the air when EbzB Productions presents “The Night Before Christmas Carol” at 3 p.m. Nov. 28 at Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vt.
Victorian England comes to life In this acclaimed one-man performance when the audience joins Charles Dickens in his study on Friday the 13th, 1843. David zum Brunnen portrays Dickens and 17 familiar characters as he re-enacts Dickens’ creation of the classic “A Christmas Carol.” Written by renowned Dickens scholar and author Eliot Engel, the performance provides personal, social and historical context to the ghostly classic.
“David (zum Brunnen) — absolutely becomes my great-grandfather on stage,” says Cedric Charles Dickens, great-grandson of the author.
EbzB Productions Inc. was founded in 1998 by Serena Ebhardt and David zum Brunnen. This award-winning husband-wife team brings more than 40 years of experience to the stage.
The program is free and open to the public, but it is not suitable for very young children.
