JOSEPH PARRA, who has done several roles at the Alhambra, returns this year to play Fezziwig. SHAIN STROFF is another Carole returnee and this year he is Charity Man # 1, and in addition was the Choreographer.
At various shows during this run ABBY DAVEY, a veteran actress at the age of ten, will be playing Tiny Tim. Following in her footsteps on Gala Night, her younger brother HARRISON DAVEY played this role. Young Master Davey who is age four was the tiniest Tiny Tim we have ever seen but was a real trooper, who sang, danced, and knew all his lines perfectly.
TIM ELLIS as Scrooge’s nephew Fred sang marvelously in a pivotal role, with his songs as narrative for much of the action on the stage.
Director/Producer Booth has done a superb job of selecting performers who wonderfully are picture perfect for their roles and can really sing, and we mean sing. We don’t think we have ever hear Scudder’s unique musical compositions performed as well. We applaud TRAVIS GERALD YOUNG (Bob Cratchit), MICHELLE LYNN MYERS (Dorothy Cratchit), LAURIE BLOOM (Molly Fezziwig), KAYLA KELSAY (Belle), JOSHIAN MORALES (Charity Man # 2) and JENNIFER AUBUCHON (LIzzie).
The only other young person in the play was the Cratchit’s daughter Sarah, played by TAYLOR HALSEMA, who at age fourteen is already a seasoned Alhambra veteran with previous roles in “Joseph,” “The Wizard of Oz,” and “Willie Wonka.”
