The Acme Improv Company is made up of some of the funniest

A Christmas Carol by Michael Paller

DECEMBER 4 and 5, 2009
Charles Dickens' beloved ghost story comes to life
in a whole new way, through the eyes of Dickens himself. The
author gathers his family for a Christmas Eve celebration
and draws them into creating a new holiday tradition, for
both the Dickens family and generations of families to come!
They are transformed into the familiar characters of the
classic tale, and we are reminded of the real meaning of the
holiday season.

that his wealthy wife had an affair – so he decides to kill
her. He blackmails an old acquaintance to do it for a fee.
It is the perfect murder until someone else gets killed! And
it is the perfect mystery for QP to adapt into a live radio
play!
