A Christmas Carol, Oy! Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa

To safely reach the widest possible audience, Theater for the New City (TNC) and Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre (CAMT) have converted their upcoming performance of "A Christmas Carol, Oy! Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa" (December 22 to January 2) from live performances to virtual (online) only. The show will be available on-demand any time beginning December 22 at 8:00 PM through January 2, the length of the previously scheduled run.

It's a wonderfully cheery show for sad times and it's ideal for young audiences. But with children over five only recently offered vaccinations and the jabs not approved for kids under five, it was necessary to re-think the presentation to do what's best for its audience and cast.

Streaming tickets are $10. Existing ticket holders are being offered an unlimited viewing link and refunds are being offered to those who purchased differently-priced tickets in advance.

With the production now available on-demand instead of on a fixed schedule, its audience is now practically unlimited.

For the delight of audiences aged 5 to 105, Theater for the New City, 155 First Ave., will present Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theatre (CAMT) in "A Christmas Carol, Oy! Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa" from December 22 to January 2. The show is an adaptation of Dickens' classic with Old World accents and New World inclusiveness. Adapted, directed and reinvented by Vit Horejs, it features over 30 puppets by Milos Kasal including a quartet of Rockettes in Slovak, Moravian and Ruthenian folk costumes and holiday songs in Czech, English, Hebrew, Slovak, Spanish and Swahili.
