Event Details
The New York Times describes Jonathan Kruk as having “a way with the spoken word, the telling gesture, the sprinkling of humor, and the appropriate costume for a smorgasbord of stories.”
Using a treasure trove of voices and gestures, he creates over thirty characters to inhabit Dickens’ classic. The result is a singular show, intimate and imaginative. Performing in Dickensian garb, the storyteller creates gripping vignettes with dynamic dialogue. Kruk employs his legendary eloquence and wit, quickly transforming into Scrooge, Cratchit, Marley, Tiny Tim, and all the spirits. This singular show takes you from Humbug to hope for redemption and joy.”
Mr. Kruk’s theatrical storytelling has been featured on CBS Sunday Morning, The Today Show, and The Travel Channel, as well as at countless schools, libraries, festivals, and historic sites. He was selected as the “Best Storyteller in the Hudson Valley.”
