BWW Review: A CHRISTMAS CAROL - IL NATALE PROSEGUE al TEATRO QUIRINO VITTORIO GASSMAN
Dopo molte tappe in tante citta italiane approda al Teatro Quirino di Roma la nuova versione tutta italiana di A CHRISTMAS CAROL, la piu classica e piu rappresentata storia di Natale di cui non si contano le tante rappresentazioni teatrali. Con anche piu di 50 versioni cinematografiche e televisive e tratta dall'opera di Charles Dickens, il musical racconta la storia di Ebenezer Scrooge, della sua avarizia e egoismo e della sua redenzione dopo aver vissuto una notte molto intensa con la visita degli spettri dei Natali passato, presente e futuro: messo di fronte alle sue cattiverie e alla sua solitudine, il vecchio usuraio si libera delle sue colpe, si riavvicina alla sua famiglia e ai suoi dipendenti sino ad allora sfruttati e malpagati riscoprendo il vero senso del Natale. La Compagnia dell'Alba ha portato in scena la versione musicata nel 1994 da Alan Menken, il pluripremiato compositore di tanti film della Disney con impeccabile professionalita e in collaborazione con il Teatro Stabile D'Abruzzo e la New Step di Americo Di Francesco e Paola Lancioni.

BWW Review: A CHRISTMAS CAROL, Lyceum Theatre
Despite being a decade-long tradition in New York, Alan Menken and Lynn Ahrens' musical adaptation of A Christmas Carol had never previously been staged in London. Based on Charles Dickens' classic novella, the story we all know and love is brought to life with a thrilling score. This week LMTO brought the musical to the Lyceum Theatre (home of the West End production of The Lion King) for a one-night-only concert staging.
