’Tis the season, and the fella who famously says, “Bah, humbug,” will once again be onstage at the Sacramento Theatre Company after taking a break the last five years. The redoutable Matt K. Miller returns as Ebenezer Scrooge in this 30th anniversary revival of the evergreen adaptation of A Christmas Carol, written for STC decades ago by Sacramento’s Richard Hellesen, with music by the late David de Berry (updated by Gregg Coffin).
This production skillfully brings out powerful, joyful and humorous performances by the cast, all within a lovely backdrop of twinkling constellations.
Kids are going to love City Theatre’s production of “Robin Hood in the Forest of Frogwarts,” a British Panto by Christine Nicholson and directed by Luther Hanson.
