FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 15th 2009 -- The King Street Players are presenting A Christmas Carol - The Broadway Musical.
Charles Dickens' classic gets the full Broadway treatment in Alan Menken’s-Lynn Ahrens’-Mike Okrent's adaptation of A Christmas Carol.
This is the version that leaves New Yorkers and tourists alike
gasping in wonder and merriment every year as the story unfolds on the stage at
Madison Square Garden. In 2004, this version became the basis of a
NBC television spectacular featuring Kelsey Grammer as Scrooge, surrounded by an
array of stars including Jason Alexander, Jesse L. Martin, Jane Krakowski,
Geraldine Chaplin, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Ruthie Henshall. Alan Menken (Little
Shop Of Horrors) and Lynn Ahrens (Ragtime The Musical, Once On This Island) have
collaborated on a score that is filled with beautiful melodies and emotional
lyrics. Their song "A Place Called Home" has become a holiday standard.
