Dickens meets King in a sock puppet mashup. What could possibly go wrong?
Creative Works of Lancaster brings its beloved sock puppets back to the stage this December with the debut of A Christmas Carrie, an original script that’s sure to be the next great holiday classic. The show will be performed on Sunday, December 13 and Sunday, December 27. Performances will be at 4, 6, and 8 p.m. at The Lancaster Dispensing Company, 315 N. Market Street. There will be a $5 cover charge at the door, with food and beverages available for purchase from The Lancaster Dispensing Company.
Combining everyone’s favorite telekinetic prom queen with the time travel of A Christmas Carol and reimagined versions of your favorite musical hits, this hilarious, twisted take on classic characters will warm up your holiday weekends more than spiked eggnog. It’s the latest offering in Creative Works of Lancaster’s series of sock puppet film parodies, with previous shows including Sock Puppet Psycho, The Sockfather, Silence of the Socks, and Jaws to the World.
Creative Works of Lancaster brings a variety of performing arts to the city in addition to sock puppet parodies. The local non-profit organization focuses on producing new works and performs an array of productions throughout the city, including free outdoor theater for families each summer, a full day of creativity and collaboration with 24 Hour Plays, sketch comedy, new plays in surprising locations, and staged readings of plays tied to social issues. Anyone who enjoys what they see is encouraged to get in touch with the group at www.creativelancaster.org for information on upcoming productions and how to get involved!
