About the Show

This toy-puppet theater extravaganza offers a new take on the classic story with old world accents, new world inclusiveness, and holiday songs.

From the show:

For the delight of audiences aged 5 to 105, Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre performs “A Christmas Carol, Oy! Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa.” Adapted, directed and reinvented by Vit Horejs, this toy-puppet theater extravaganza is a new take on Charles Dickens’ classic with Old World accents, New World inclusiveness and holiday songs. Into the familiar story are woven a surprising and delightful blend of English, Jewish, African, American and Czech winter rituals and customs, all performed by over three dozen marionettes ranging in size from four to twenty-four inches as well as found objects and toys.

Clever, Slow, Quirky, Fluffy, Entertaining

See it if If you like shows with marionettes. A straight forward Christmas story with some funny turns.a pretty good company with some flaws.

Don't see it if High pitched singing can get annoying. This show gets slow at times and silly as well. It also delves away from main points at times.
