BWHS Drama Club offers A Christmas Carol

By OLIVIA BECKETT

For The Sun­bury News

The Big Wal­nut High School Drama Depart­ment opens the 2012–13 school year sched­ule with a tra­di­tional sea­sonal pre­sen­ta­tion of Charles Dick­ens’ A Christ­mas Carol, a time­less clas­sic with hol­i­day mes­sage that never gets old.

Audi­ence mem­bers will join the Drama Department’s cast and crew as they fol­low the jour­ney of a self­ish man’s awak­en­ing, view­ing his life through the ghosts of his past, present and future dur­ing the course of an evening.

The overnight life-altering expe­ri­ence trans­forms a self-absorbed, greedy, crude, busi­ness­man (played by Ian George) and helps him find the true mean­ing of life and the Christ­mas spirit.

The pro­duc­tion, directed by Big Wal­nut High School Drama Coach Erin Gib­bons, is largely stu­dent dri­ven, with cos­tumes by Erin Wampler, Zoe Heller, Andrea Ronk and Esther Ens­minger, and music direc­tion by Christina Schirtzinger.

A Christ­mas Carol will be pre­sented at 7:30 p.m. on Thurs­day, Novem­ber 29, Fri­day Novem­ber 30, and Sat­ur­day Decem­ber 1 in the Big Wal­nut High School Audi­to­rium. Tick­ets will be avail­able for pur­chase at the door.
