“An Improv Carol”
Second Act Productions has adapted the classic holiday story A Christmas Carol in this wildly entertaining holiday show!
Based on your suggestions, our improvisers will retell Dickens’ tale of Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, and of course, Tiny Tim in all sorts of hilarious ways. Each night is a new version of this old favorite, combining this historic work with audience suggestions into a holiday improvised show.
Where does Scrooge work? What ails Tiny Tim? Does Scrooge even get reformed? With each night a new version of this old favorite, the audience and performers alike will have an uproarious adventure in the world of improv!
