"Carol of the Bells"
November 30 – December 24, 2006

By Kevin T. Morales
Directed by Daren A.C. Carollo

Town Hall Theatre Company presents a new Kevin Morales original, “Carol of the Bells.” This holiday show features an eclectic mix of traditional and popular Christmas carols, as well as classic and contemporary music. The story follows the Bell sisters, three Sugar Plum Faeries who come from the chilly North Pole to an even more frigid North American suburb that has forgotten the meaning of Christmas. The faeries, with the help of some of the local children, are able to warm the hearts of their cold parents with the power of music and memory, all the while learning something about the  humanity within themselves. They shake up the rigid morality of the community and rekindle the Christmas spirit in a musical sensation that all ages will enjoy.
 
The show includes many Christmas favorites like “I’ll Be Home for Christmas,” “Do You Hear What I Hear,” and “Silent Night,” as well as pop songs like “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic” and “This Cat Is On a Hot Tin Roof.” A children’s choir, featured throughout the show,  acts as a kind of Greek chorus. The children perform nearly a dozen classic and contemporary carols.
 
“This is ‘Let’s Go To the Movies’ colliding with ‘It’s A Wonderful Life,’” says director Daren A.C. Carollo. “The show has so much heart. This is a zany script that brings home a heart-warming message. It’s a show not to be missed. No regional theater ever takes risks like this—a world premiere for this time, this theater, and this audience. Kevin’s play is an incredible gift to the holiday season.”
 
Amy Neiman, who plays the oldest sister Viola, "It’s a fun show that will get you into the holiday spirit, and it’s a great time for the whole family. There is something for everyone to enjoy.”
 
Appropriate for all ages.
