A Christmas Carol By Doris Baizley
The week before Thanksgiving on November 20 -- bringing our 2025 season to a close -- will be an inspired new adaptation by Doris Baizley of Charles Dickens’s holiday classic, A Christmas Carol. As presented by a traveling vaudeville troupe during the Great Depression, the scurrilous band of performers discover that their Scrooge and Tiny Tim might’ve been left behind in the last town they played. Regardless, the show must go on! As they scramble to make last-minute changes and unexpected casting switches (that involve the stage crew), this collection of theatrical misfits delivers laughs and gasps, along with the big-hearted spirit of the yuletide season.
Reviews for A Christmas Carol By Doris Baizley

Provincetown Theater
It’s so interesting seeing the levels of transformation as actors playing actors adjust their performances to their characters. No one in this troupe is ever winning an Oscar, and everyone seems to delight in their over-the-top work. Halley has a particularly difficult job: playing an “actor” who has never acted before, keeping the internal show going in his role as Scrooge while at the same time showing that the stage manager isn’t quite sure about—or ready for—this acting gig. It leads to some over-acting that’s particularly funny.
