"Center Repertory Company's West Coast premiere of an new adaptation of A Christmas Carol offers something for everyone. Charles Dickens' classic story has a man and a community grappling with timeless themes such as choosing empathy over profit, offering acceptance without judgement, recognizing the wisdom of children, while also reflecting near the end of life on one's past, present and future."
"Presented Dec. 10-21 at the Walnut Creek's downtown Lesher Center for the Arts, the two-act, roughly two-hour production was adapted by playwright Harrison David Rivers in collaboration with Sally Lobel and is directed by two-time Obie Award-winning theater artist Jared Mezzocchi. The Center Rep cast is joined by Berkeley-based AXIS Dance Company. The AXIS ensemble founded in 1987 includes disabled, non-disabled, d/Deaf and neurodiverse professional performing artists and is led by Artistic Director Nadia Adame and Executive Director Danae Rees."
