Holiday Tradition ''A Christmas Carol'' Returns to Legacy Theatre December 4-15!

The fan-favorite holiday tradition returns, this time with a new leading man! The Legacy Theatre team is pleased to announce that Rod Brogan will join the company of A Christmas Carol as Ebenezer Scrooge. Legacy audiences may recognize Brogan from his performance earlier this season as Adam in Mark Twain’s The Diaries of Adam and Eve. Brogan also boasts an impressive resume, with credits such as Mauritius on Broadway, the National Tour of Doubt, series' regular Chip Russell in the first season of the CBS sitcom Major Dad, and bad guy Tripp Tucker on the ABC soap opera One Life to Live. Brogan is currently playing Bingham in A Fox on the Fairway at Riverside Theatre in Vero Beach, FL. 

The A Christmas Carol cast also features a number of new faces set to bring their own brand of holiday magic to the production, including Epifany Meeks (Sweet Dreams: A Bedtime Story Comes to Life) as Clock Chime, Charity Woman, and more, Christine Voytko (DRACULA: A Comedy of Terrors, Love Affair) as The Ghost of Christmas Past, Mrs. Cratchit, and more, and Indiana Weaver (A Princess Tea) as The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, Belle, and Fred’s Wife. Nate Bloom (Disney’s Beauty and the Beast) and Chelsea Dacey (The Great American Mousical, A Princess Tea) join the cast as swings. Returning to the production are Kiersten Bjork (Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, Joan Joyce!) as Mrs. Fezziwig, Fan, Martha Cratchit, and more, Dan Frye (The Play That Goes Wrong, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast) as Young Scrooge, Fred, and Gravedigger, Chris Lemieux (The Play That Goes Wrong, You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown) as Jacob Marley, Mr. Fezziwig, and The Ghost of Christmas Present, and Josiah Rowe (DRACULA: A Comedy of Terrors, The Great American Mousical) as the Narrator, Bob Cratchit, and Gravedigger.
