Casting Call for Scrooge and Marley
Scrooge
& Marley is a modern-day variation on Charles Dickens’ classic
story of the holidays, A Christmas Carol. Recounted from a gay
sensibility, with heart, comedy and music, the magic of Dickens’
timeless tale of a man’s redemption at the holidays-thanks to the help
of three ghostly spirits-comes alive from a fresh perspective that will
appeal to audiences of every persuasion.
