Pima Theatre presents

A 1940'S RADIO CHRISTMAS CAROL

ONE NIGHT ONLY!

Friday, December 4 at 7 pm

$10 Minimum Donation

donations up to full-time tuition (12 credits - $1,044)

Donations are accepted at the Pima Foundation website. All monies raised support the Achievement Award, which provides assistance to incoming theatre students to help pay for tuition.

Join Pima Arts Alumni for a one night only production of A 1940's Radio Christmas Carol. Alumni Guest Artists include, Alexis Burrows, Gaby De Brequet, Maria Gawne, Todd Thompson, Erin Thompson and David Zinke. Several alums are pulling double duty: Maria Gawne (Director), Music Director Alexis Burrows (Music Director) and Andrea Pratt (Producer) create a concert-style format that is socially distanced.

Storyline: It's Christmas Eve, 1943, and the Feddington Players are preparing for a live radio broadcast of their own version of Dickens' A Christmas Carol. Complicated by noisy plumbing, missed cues, electrical blackouts, and the over-the-top theatrics of their special guest, the broadcast takes a hilarious turn when the performers are forced to improvise a hysterically unusual ending in order to "save the show." 

Featuring swing arrangements of Christmas standards and four original songs, A 1940's Christmas Carol is a heartwarming and laugh-out-loud piece that will give you all the holiday feels you have been craving.
