SUMMARY:A Christmas Carol with Rick Corbo as Charles Dickens
DESCRIPTION:Imagine stepping into a beautifully decorated Victorian home on a December evening\, surrounded by the glow of Christmas trees\, garlands\, and soft white lights—and hearing Charles Dickens himself tell the story of Ebenezer Scrooge. That experience will come to life on Saturday\, December 12\, at 6:30 p.m.\, when the Torrington Historical Society presents Rick Corbo as Charles Dickens in A Christmas Carol at the historic Hotchkiss-Fyler House Museum. For generations\, A Christmas Carol has been part of the holiday season and this performance offers audiences a chance to experience Dickens’ classic in a setting that evokes the world in which he lived and performed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nCorbo’s performance recreates the intimate dramatic readings Dickens himself gave during his lifetime\, bringing the characters\, humor\, drama\, and timeless message of A Christmas Carol to life. And there is perhaps no better setting for the performance than the Hotchkiss- Fyler House. Built in 1900\, this elegant house museum will be dressed in its holiday finery\, creating a warm and atmospheric setting for this beloved Christmas classic. \nRick Corbo has portrayed Charles Dickens for more than eight years\, performing at venues and events including the Storrowtown Yuletide Weekend\, the Greater Boston Dickens Fellowship\, and Franciscan University of Steubenville in Ohio. Corbo also wrote and starred as Dickens in Reclaiming the Carol\, broadcast annually on the EWTN Network\, and appeared as Dickens on an episode of the EWTN series Chesterton Station. A Torrington native\, Corbo now lives with his family in West Haven\, Connecticut \n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgram is approximately 45 minutes. \nSeating is limited to 35 guests\, so please register early. \nDoors will open at 6:15 p.m \n Tickets: \nA Christmas Carol \n\n
