FREE "Christmas Carol" performance Monday Night December 19th at the Provo Library at 7 PM.

Who gets to perform all of the characters from "A Christmas Carol"? I do! Just like Charles Dickens used to do, I'll be performing his cutting of "A Christmas Carol" for FREE -- and when you join us you'll get to sing between each stave!

Dickens called this a carol, and labeled the parts staves like a song. This always puts me in the Christmas mood and having the audience singing Christmas carols makes this a really fun evening.

Hope you can joins us!!
