We are requiring the following from our patrons to attend Albuquerque Little Theatre performances: This is an extremely effective and easily produced version of this Christmas classic. The Christmas Spirits work their magic and warm the heart of Scrooge, as well as the old stage manager. The rag tag players (including the stage manager and prop boy) quickly become the characters of the story, and we are pulled into the life of Ebenezer Scrooge. The troupe proceeds to make their way through the tale, creating fog, snow, fire and ghosts through mime, imagination and wonderful visual effects. The acting troupe soon discovers that the actors playing Scrooge and Tiny Tim have abandoned the tour but the show must go on, and the prop boy eagerly volunteers for the part of Tim while the cynical stage manager must be forcibly drafted to play the old miser. The gruff stage manager and prop boy check the show's props, which are shabby and third rate, but the troupe improvises by creating a magical world of make-believe. As the on-stage trunk of supplies opens, actors and clowns spill out and roll on. In this version, we encounter a company of traveling players about to enact the Dickens story.

But as the tentacles of the corporation envelope them all, can the citizens of this little Texas town put aside their problems and unite behind Joveeta to fight “the big guys” and turn the tide in Doublewide?

Big Ethel has her hands full trying to teach the town’s good-ol’-boy police chief, Baby Crumpler, how to dirty-dance for a countywide competition. Caprice is also hell-bent on keeping her neighbor and rival, Big Ethel Satterwhite, from horning in on her domain-the Stagger Inn bar.

Mayor Joveeta Crumpler is the only one suspicious enough to sound the alarm, but no one is listening.
