DCCA Artists
Series presents "A Christmas Carol"
Darke County Center for the Arts will present Charles Dickens' A
Christmas Carol at Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville on
Saturday, December 17 at 8 p.m. According to DCCA Artistic Director
Keith Rawlins, the beloved tale of redemption and joy will be performed
by the National Touring Company of the North County Center for the
Arts, which has been providing award-winning theater for nearly 30
years. "This production features first class professional actors, lush
costumes, and stunning sets, as well as traditional carols and a
timeless message," Mr. Rawlins stated. "DCCA is thrilled to be able to
bring this delightful and entertaining show to our community; A
Christmas Carol provides the perfect vehicle to fill audiences of all
ages with the true spirit of the season," he concluded.
The second production of DCCA's 2016-2017 Artists Series season, A
Christmas Carol stars Scott H. Severance as miserly Ebenezer Scrooge;
Mr. Severance, who also directs the show, says that Dickens' classic
tale, first published in 1843, presents unforgettable contrasting
images of darkness and despair, light and joy, and was one of the
greatest influences rejuvenating the old Christmas traditions of
England. DCCA officials stated that this presentation brings musical
theatre to their performing arts schedule, something often requested by
patrons but difficult to present in the space offered at St. Clair
Memorial Hall, while at the same time appropriately celebrating the
holiday season through the arts.
