Farndale Avenue Housing Estate Townswomen's Guild Dramatic Society Production of A Christmas Carol
The Farndale Christmas Carol is one of 11 plays from a series written by McGillivray and Zerlin in the British style of "coarse theatre," which generally includes a company of amateurs who struggle to do their best and find nothing but defeat, yet continue regardless to the bitter and hilarious end. London daily newspaper, The Independent, praised the original production as "another classic dramatic massacre that enthralls." The London Guardian critic enjoyed the "hilarious moments of delightful inventive silliness."
The play centers on the Farndale Dramatic Society's decision to launch its production of "A Christmas Carol." Murphy's Law soon applies -- from collapsing scenery to falling actors, missed cues to disappearing props, everything that can go wrong finds a way to go wrong. The only thing never lost is abundant laughter for the audience.
