A BERKS COUNTY CHRISTMAS CAROL
COVID PROTOCOLS – FACE MASK’S require to attend! The cast does not wear face coverings!
Some of the most beloved historical and iconic figures in Berks County history come alive for a yuletide gathering you won’t forget. Michael O’Flaherty, Genesius’ co-founder, makes his talented return to our stage as Charles Dickens’ cantankerous curmudgeon – Ebenezer Scrooge – in this modern-day version of this classic tale. Local heroes make spirited appearances opposite O’Flaherty’s Scrooge in a highly theatrical twist on this family favorite. Custom-made for Genesius with all-original music, here’s a tuneful, heartfelt confection spiced with plenty of HOLIDAY CHEER to sweeten your season. You really don’t want to miss this Christmas treat!
