“You should have seen me at that age, scrounging for work, sluggin’ it out in the chorus, getting pushed down the stairs by Angela Lansbury…” ~Carolyn

 

Christmas Carolyn, the campy backstage adaptation of the classic, Christmas Carol, is having its World Premiere performances in the Brooks Theatre at the Cleveland Play House...and you are invited!  Conceived and written by Baldwin-Wallace graduate and MSS Artistic Associate Daniel Marshall, Christmas Carolyn, ushers in the holiday season with cheer, and more than a few laughs. The World Premiere, playing December 13th and 14th in the Brooks Theatre at The Cleveland Play House, is sure to sell out (pun intended)!

On Christmas Eve in Deerfield, Iowa the tired bus and truck company of ‘Sassy Lassy,’ is stranded in a blizzard. Carolyn DuMont, the star of 'Sassy Lassy' and the most hated woman in show business, has just completed her 9,999th performance in the title role.   When she demands that her cast skip their Christmas Holiday for a much needed brush-up rehearsal, the cast members revolt, locking her in the theatre overnight. Trapped alone on the stage, and guided by two ghosts (and the spirit of Ethel Merman), Carolyn faces her past and her demons to discover the true meaning of showbiz…oh and Christmas too!

Cleveland stage legend Hester Lewellen leads a top-notch cast including Kelly and Joe Monaghan, Dan Dicello, Joanna May Hunkins, Brian Marshall, Jonathan Ramos, Abby Allwein, Cindi Verbelun, Kelvette Beacham, and Sarah Pesak as Ethel Merman! MSS Artistic Director Pierre-Jacques Brault directs the production with Eddie Carney serving as Musical Director. Tickets for Christmas Carolyn are available by calling the Mercury Summer Stock box office at (216) 771-5862.
