Actor Neil McGarry returns to the Cape with his award-winning, solo performance of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol for two shows this year! Catch him at Thacher Hall on Friday, December 5 at 7:30 PM and at Cotuit Center for the Arts on Tuesday, December 23 at 7:30 PM.
Directed by Ross MacDonald, McGarry’s performance was named “Best Of Boston” by critic Jules Becker and won "Best Solo Performance” from the Independent Reviewers of New England in 2014. Armed only with Dickens’ words and a bare stage, McGarry delivers the perennial holiday classic in a tour de force that has left audiences riveted from Boston to Prague. Joyous, witty, and gloriously uplifting, A Christmas Carol is a fully staged, full-throated leap into Dickens’ most famous story, delivered with a simplicity that disarms and touches the heart.
Why We Collaborate: Mankind was my business! And art is for all is our business! Sister arts organizations Thacher Hall and Cotuit Center for the Arts are proudly collaborating to bring this time-honored holiday story, A Christmas Carol, to both of our venues in December. We believe the arts are for everyone. And we know that in collaborating to tell the story of Marley and Scrooge and Bob Cratchit and Tiny Tim by co-producing the moving one-man performance of outstanding actor, Neil McGarry, we are spreading the goodness of art. Together.
