A Christmas Carol at the Whallonsburg Grange
Last weekend there was a very fine stages reading of A Christmas Carol at the Whallonsburg Grange, with Chris Jones and Ted Cornell, organized by the Depot Theatre. I was backstage doing child-wrangling, making sure my kids didn't miss their cues (Elizabeth was Tiny Tim). My husband David took pictures. (More photos HERE.)
Also, Jim Carrol took some very nice pictures which are HERE (go to his gallery, "A Christmas Carol").
