Dickens: Past & Present at Monmouth community players (MCPKids!)

“A Dickens Christmas Carol” by Gary Peterson is produced by special arrangement with Pioneer Drama Service, Inc., Denver, Colorado. It tells the beloved story of Scrooge and his miraculous transformation. “Three Ghosts and a Jock” by Quinn Baldwin and Kyle Frederick comes from a collection of plays for kids and teens at https://www.dramanotebook.com/plays-for-kids. It is a hilarious story of a teen with no Christmas spirit- that is, until he is visited by the ghosts of past, present and future. 

The cast is composed of 29 talented youth between the ages of 6-13 from Auburn, Farmingdale, Gardiner, Hallowell, Leeds, Lewiston, Litchfield, Monmouth, Mount Vernon, New Gloucester, Wales, and Winthrop. The production team includes Director Mary Melquist, Assistant Director Amy Griswold, Producer Emily Kalafarski, Stage Manager Ginger Smith, and special guest Choreographer Julie Sanborn.
