Charles Dickens will roll over in his grave as
Pandora Productions presents
a quick-change, cross-dressing version of
A Christmas Carol
LOUISVILLE, KY – October 5, 2021 –
Pandora Productions, Louisville's only theatre company dedicated and most trusted to tell the stories of the LGBTQ+ community, proudly continues their 2021-2022 Season with the raucous holiday treat, SCROOGE IN ROUGE, with book and lyrics by
Ricky Graham and music by
Jefferson Turner.
This quick-change, cross-dressing version of the
Charles Dickens classic is set in a Victorian music hall. The Royal Music Hall Twenty-Member Variety Players are beset with a widespread case of food poisoning. This leaves only three surviving members to soldier on through a performance of A Christmas Carol. The undaunted trio gamely face missed cues, ill-fitting costumes, and solving the problem of having no one to play Tiny Tim. Done in the style of British Music Hall, this show abounds in bad puns, bawdy malapropisms, naughty double-entendres, and witty songs. A raucous holiday treat!
SCROOGE IN ROUGE will be produced live at the
Henry Clay Theatre. The Company's Artistic Director, Michael J. Drury directs, Russell Cooper musically directs and Molly Kays choreographs the cast that includes: May O'Nays, Kristy Calman and
Tony Smith. SCROOGE IN ROUGE will run November 5, 6, 11, 12, 13 @ 7:30 p.m.; 7 @ 5:30 p.m.; and the only matinee on Sunday, November 14th @ 2:00 p.m. Advanced tickets are $22 and are available online at
www.PandoraProds.org or by calling 502.216.5502.
