Founding Member Renee Johnson wraps up our reading of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens with her fantastic performance of Stave V, when Scrooge wakes up on Christmas Day after being visited by the ghosts of Marley, Christmas Past, Christmas Present, and Christmas Yet-to-Come.
Directed by Rebecca Zellar and Assistant-Directed by Connie Wurster.
