When Charles Dickens put ink to paper for
“A Christmas Carol,” he probably never could
have envisioned his tale being told quite like
this. Al LePage, a laugh riot with acting chops
to boot, returns to town this year with his pro-
duction “A Christmas Carol for Kids!” The one-
man show is a retelling of Dickens’ classic
tale through the eyes of Englishman Thomas
Hutchinson, Traveling Thespian. LePage uses
his skills to enliven the story by playing every
character, and doing it well. The show is for
kids 5 and up, and it’s guaranteed that they’ll
be captivated, giggling and having fun from
start to fi nish. Take a look at that bloke!
