Wishing everyone a a wonderful holiday break. As we speak we have several students working hard on an upcoming musical in January and it reminds us of a group of ambitious students who wrote, directed and performed an original Christmas musical here in 2006 as part of an Independent Study project.
From the programme – It’s Christmas Carol is a musical comedy based on the original Charles Dickens story of A Christmas Carol. Carol is a successful tyrant of a director who is headed for disaster. Through visits from the Musical Theatre Fairy, Dorothy, Liza Minelli, and the Phantom of the Future, Carol is taken on a tour of her past, present and future life in order to see the error of her ways.
It’s Christmas, Carol a débuté comme un projet amusant pour un spectacle de Noël à Glendon, en incorporant des musicales populaires de Broadway. Sans limites, cette musicale originale explore plus de 75 comédies musicales pendant qu’elle suit les lignes directrices de la moralité de Charles Dickens. Construite à partir des meilleurs musicals de Broadway, et suivant une tradition des fêtes de Noël, cette mise en scène incorpore une grande variété de musique, chanson et danse. En association avec l’Ensemble Musical de Glendon, It’s Christmas Carol, la comédie musicale, va aussi inclure un orchestre.
