Jonathan Kruk's "A Christmas Carol" at Tompkins Corners

Master storyteller Jonathan Kruk, selected Best in the Hudson Valley, returns to Tompkins Corners Cultural Center to perform Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol on Wednesday, December 28th at 7 pm.

Kruk gives life to over thirty characters in a dramatic solo performance of "A Christmas Carol." Add the ambiance provided by original music accompaniment by Jim Keyes on a portal pipe organ, with bells, harp, violin, and chains, and opening with a lively sing along of "The Twelve Days of Christmas," and you've got a unique dramatic version of "the perfect tale of haunting redemption and hope."

Running about an hour, Kruk abridges Dickens 27,000 word opus to a family friendly show. Performing in colorful 1840s garb, Kruks sonorous, ever changing voice, along with Keyes score, is enchanting holiday entertainment for the whole family.

Tickets are $15 for adults $10 for children 12 and under. With the kids home from school Christmas week, attending the early evening performance will be a delightful way for families to prolong the Christmas spirit. Refreshments will be available.

Tompkins Corners Cultural Center is located in the historic Methodist Church at 729 Peekskill Hollow Road in Putnam Valley For further information visit our website at www.tompkinscorners.org or call 845 528-7280.
