An all-star cast has been assembled for a virtual reading of "A Country Christmas Carol," a brand new twist on the Dickens classic with Emmy winning actor Jacob Young playing "Ben," a spoiled country music superstar, who's life is forever changed by the Ghosts of Christmas' Past, Present, and Future.

Jacob is joined by Special Guests, pop music icon Taylor Dayne, recently seen on "The Masked Singer," who made her Broadway debut in "Disney's Aida," CMA Award-winning country music artist James Otto, and Motown legend from The Supremes, Mary Wilson.
