A CHRISTMAS CAROL by Charles Dickens (Singing Carols and Acted out in Puppetry + Art)

Merry Christmas! aahomemade family production just for you from last year....clean for the whole family and hilarious...but still with a warm and wonderful Dicken...message of love and compassion...join my family at Christmas eve..on our patio...they stood in the cold to do these scenes there was no room in the den...hah hah. Yes it was merry indeed! Happy New Year Dearests! I got this idea to start a new tradition on Christmas eve to put on a Christmas play and make a video.. using drawings to tell the story...and asking my family to be the actors...It was so much fun! My sister and Brother were the leads in this play. My kids, nieces nephews grandson joined in too. My sis played Scrooges sister Fan and Fiance Belle and my brother played Scrooge...a good time was had by all!
This is the story of Ebeneezer Scrooge life and how he changed in one night with the help of three spirits! "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens...1843 Dickens called it his "Little Christmas Book." It sold thousands of copies in no time in 1843He wrote this in a couple of weeks cause of some debt he had. It has become an old time Christmas classic!
Hope you enjoy my families sometimes silly sometimes serious sometimes scary (not really) version of it.We did it last week Chritmas Eve. I took a few days to process it. So here it is! MAY I PRESENT TO YOU CHARLES DICKENS CLASSIC....CHRISTMAS STORY--" A Christmas Carol." ENJOY!
