Troy Foundry Theatre presents "A Christmas Carol" on 12/10, 12/11, 12/12

Troy Foundry Theatre is an innovative, boundary-breaking theatre company based in Troy, NY, dedicated to creating original, immersive, and socially resonant performance.

This holiday season, Troy Foundry Theatre presents the return of its spine-tingling, atmospheric, and deeply human adaptation of Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol,” presented as a winter fundraiser for the theatre company.

“A Christmas Carol” is one of English literature’s best-known stories of the dangers of greed and the ever-possible redemption of the human spirit.

Adapted, edited, and re-imagined by Wesley Broulik, Troy Foundry Theatre’s production features a solo performance by David Girard with immersive musical and sonic accompaniment from composer and multi-instrumentalist Connor Armbruster.

Troy Foundry Theatre presents “A Christmas Carol” December 10, 11 & 12 at 8PM in The Waiting Room in Troy.

Both artists join us now – David and Connor – welcome!
