SCROOGE IN ROUGE

Book and Lyrics by Ricky Graham

SCROOGE IN ROUGE was originally presented at Le Chat Noir, New Orleans, on December 7, 2007
Produced through a special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, "Scrooge In Rouge" turns the Dickens classic, "A Christmas Carol" into a comedic masterpiece.
This quick-change, cross-dressing version of the Charles Dickens classic is set in a Victorian music hall. The Royal Music Hall Twenty-Member Variety Players are beset with a widespread case of food poisoning. This leaves only three surviving members to soldier on through a performance of A Christmas Carol. The undaunted trio gamely face missed cues, ill-fitting costumes, and solving the problem of having no one to play Tiny Tim. Done in the style of British Music Hall, SCROOGE IN ROUGE abounds in bad puns, bawdy malapropisms, naughty double-entendres, and witty songs. A raucous holiday treat!
