I went to see a musical production of "A Christmas Carol" in Stoneham last night - the cast was wonderful (in particular, their Scrooge was amazing, and Scrooge's nephew was fricken hot). My only complaint was that they didn't have a live orchestra doing the music (what can I say, I'm spoiled). It wasn't a musical in that 'musical comedy' or 'holiday revue' kind of way. Most of the show was dialogue (and it was narrated by various members of the cast - I really love this adaptation of it).
If Dickens is your thing and you're looking to support the arts locally, please check these guys out. The theater wasn't full last night so I'm guessing there are still tickets available. I can also suggest their 'dinner and a show' deal. It only cost us $10 additional to get the dinner and we went to a nice little Italian place across the street from
the theater (salad, entree, coffee and dessert was included).

I'm really looking forward to checking out one of their future productions: Lizzie Borden The Musical (!).
