I’m performing as Ebenezer Scrooge at Payson Community Theatre’s production of Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol right now. Fun fact – Austin Bateman, the actor in the show who plays Young Scrooge, is a fan of the podcast. He’s done a great job interpreting how a younger BJ Harrison would sound as Scrooge. My son Seven picked up on what he was doing and complimented him on it. It’s a great show. If you’re in the area, there are three more performances.
Today’s VINTAGE episode was recorded in 2018, when my son was Scrooge in high school. I thought it was time to revisit the story. There’s a reason it’s a classic!
And now, A Christmas Carol, Part 1 of 4, by Charles Dickens
