BWW Blog: Mark Price of Off-Broadway's A CHRISTMAS CAROL - Pint-Sized Yuletide
By: Guest Blogger: Mark Price Dec. 17, 2013
Tom Getchell is one patient man, he is also the fantastic creator and visionary behind one of the stars of our show, Tiny Tim. I had about six hours total to make friends with this nine string marionette and Tom was cool as a cucumber in working with me. But rather than tell you about Tiny Tim, I'd thought I'd show you what a day in the life of this magical dude is like.

Getting some inside tips from Scrooge himself.
Accordion Lessons with Franca.
Stretching those Dickesian gams before half hour.
