Events Description

 

The Loose Moose Theatre Company first produced ‘Chrismoose Carol’ in 1996, and it proved to be so popular it became an annual event. Based on Charles Dickens classic story we have presented our unique version of ‘Chrismoose Carol’ in various ways over the years. One year it was an all puppet cast, another year it was set in Ancient Rome, and in another the Carol was told by only three people, with the audience deciding who would play Scrooge every night.

In 2020 while updating our archives we ran across an obscure silent film version from 1919 that appeared to be the inspiration for Loose Moose Theatre’s first version of ‘Chrismoose Carol’ and all the other versions that followed. However, due to COVID restrictions we were only able to offer ‘Chrismoose Carol – 1919’ online. At the same time we found the silent film we also came across a radio script of Chrismoose Carol from the 1930s. This year we will be presenting that script live onstage at the Loose Moose Theatre complete with live foley and musical accompaniment.

The ‘Original Live Radio Broadcast of Chrismoose Carol Live On Stage’ will be performed with the vocal stylings of Loose Moose regulars Rob Mitchelson, Jennifer Lynn Bain, Ken Gardener and Dennis Cahill, who will each perform numerous roles usually associated with this story, and some which are not. Our foley artist is Michael Dargie, with musical accompaniment from Ellis Lalonde.
