Firehall Arts Centre is celebrating the holiday season with its presentation of A Christmas Carol from Wednesday, December 14 to Saturday, December 24.
Stratford/Shaw stalwart Sanjay Talwar performs all 40 characters in this one-man version of Charles Dickens’s familiar tale produced by Blue Bridge Repertory Theatre.
“I’m thrilled to be able to present a classic tale this holiday season,” says Firehall Arts Centre Artistic & Executive Producer Donna Spencer. “It’s one of my favourite stories and a wonderful reminder of what Christmas is all about. Sanjay Talwar’s performance is such a gift, and I hope Firehall audiences will revel in the warmth of this production.”
A Christmas Carol is a whirlwind show that will make your heart twinkle.
“Blue Bridge’s A Christmas Carol is a pure joy to watch...Talwar delivers much more than a simple reading. He portrays all the characters, making each one distinctive and memorable, nimbly navigating a number of accents. It is, above all, the laughter of relief. And we the audience chuckle along too, having taken a journey both wild and wonderful.” – Victoria Times Colonist
