THE MINSTREL PLAYERS ANNOUNCE 4th ANNUAL HOLIDAY PRODUCTION

The Minstrel Players Theatre Company of Northport prepare for their Fourth Annual Holiday production at Houghton Hall - Trinity Episcopal Church, 130 Main Street in scenic Northport Village. They will be staging Charles Dickens' classic, "A Christmas Carol", and hope that it will become a regular Northport holiday tradition. Performances are one weekend only on Friday, December 7th and Saturday, December 8th at 8 P.M. and a 3 P.M. matinee on Sunday, December 9th. The performance on Friday, December 7th will have a special opening night ticket price of $10 for all seats. 

"A Christmas Carol" is adapted from the Charles Dickens novel by Tara Palen. Tara Palen is also directing this production with Debbie Palen acting as Assistant Director. The cast features Ray Palen as Scrooge and many Minstrel Players veterans in various roles - Karen Ottomano, Cormac Barrett, Anne Albano, Jennifer Dallari Chirles, Keith Junas, and Gloria Roberts. Additionally, the large cast features many newcomers to the Minstrel stage - including, a group of children/teens ranging in age from 5 to 14, who all perform in various roles. The Minstrel Players are once again up for the challenge of bringing this well-known holiday classic to life and the founding members are all "A Christmas Carol" experts who found inspiration for their rendition in the countless classic stage and film productions of this famous novel. The Minstrel Players' staging of "A Christmas Carol" has become a holiday tradition for the Northport area!
