The Granada Theatre<\/a> presents the holiday classic, Charles\u00a0Dickens’\u00a0<\/a>A Christmas Carol<\/a>,<\/i>\u00a0<\/i>performed by actor David Melville <\/a>as a one man show on Friday, December 12\u00a0at 8 p.m.\u00a0in the McCune Founders Room.<\/p>\n

Recapture the spirit of an old-fashioned 19th century Christmas with this timeless classic, with nearly all of your favorite characters performed by Melville as Charles Dickens.<\/p>\n

In his lifetime, Dickens was famous for performing dramatic interpretations of his own work. In what has become\u00a0a\u00a0holiday tradition, the Independent Shakespeare Company<\/a> (ISC) re-creates, with a great deal of artistic license, the experience. A young actress joins Melville, and what follows is an evening of wry humor, romance and redemption.<\/p>\n
