Following the sold-out success of Jersey Boys, Osceola Arts is gearing up for another highly anticipated production: A 1940’s Radio Christmas Carol. Running from December 6 through December 22, 2024, this festive show promises to deliver holiday cheer with classic tunes, original songs, and a nostalgic twist. Don’t miss your chance to experience the magic—tickets are expected to go fast!
Set on Christmas Eve, 1943, this production takes you back in time with the Feddington Players, who bring a unique twist to Charles Dickens’s “A Christmas Carol” during a chaotic live radio broadcast in Newark, NJ.
The story takes a dramatic turn when William St. Claire, a veteran actor but newcomer to radio, faces a personal crisis on air, blending his life story with Dickens’s tale. The cast improvises through various mishaps, leading to a suspenseful, film noir-inspired finale that promises plenty of mystery, humor, and heartfelt moments.
A 1940’s Radio Christmas Carol, featuring original songs by Faye Greenberg and David Wohl (of High School Musical fame), also includes swing versions of beloved Christmas classics. The show offers a perfect mix of drama, comedy, and holiday cheer for the entire family.
