A Christmas Carol

On Thursday, November 30, 2017, The Historical Christmas Barn and Colony Grill, to benefit Operation Hope of Fairfield, CT will present "A Christmas Carol" at Black Rock Church in Fairfield CT.

This heartwarming show-of-the-season is performed by Gerald Charles Dickens, the great-great grandson of literary master, Charles Dickens. Gerald, an actor and producer hails from Oxford, England and performs his captivating rendition of this timeless holiday classic.

During his energetic one-man show, Dickens brings A Christmas Carol to life. He leaps, he sobs, he laughs as he entertains depicting 26 characters of the classic tale, with just a table, wing chair, and hat rack accompanying him on stage.

Mr. Dickens returns to the U.S. for his 2017 tour that will take him to several states across the country. He will transform theaters into scenes straight out of the classic holiday tale, much as Scrooge was transformed from a dispirited miser to a joyous soul after his Christmas Eve encounter with ghosts from the past, present and future.

The performance is sponsored by The Historical Christmas Barn in Wilton CT and Colony Grill.

All of the proceeds from the performance will benefit Operation Hope Operation Hope of Fairfield CT. Operation Hope provides the opportunity for individuals and families to experience transformative change by addressing basic needs for food and shelter, as well as offering long-term solutions to hunger and homelessness, including affordable housing, life skills training and personalized clinical support.
