Dickens classic reading at Southport Town Hall

Thu, 11/15/2018 - 7:30am

Southport Memorial Library Aides will present Broadway actor Will Rhys in “A Christmas Carol” at Southport Town Hall, Route 27, on Sunday, Dec. 9 at 2 p.m.

Mr. Rhys has adapted the Charles Dickens classic to create a one-man staging in which he brings each character to life, capturing their nuances and delivering a full range of emotion. Of Rhys’s recent performance in Freeport one reviewer noted, “His rendition is a lively version that embodies the story’s magical message.”

This family-friendly holiday event is free, although donations to the Aides will be gratefully accepted.

Due to limited seating, early arrival is suggested. Doors will open at 1:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served at intermission.

The library is at 1032 Hendricks Hill Road, Southport Island. For more information call 633-2741.
