Cast Announced for A CHRISTMAS CAROL at Tri-County Players

A CHRISTMAS CAROL by Patrick Barlow 

 Directed by Sarah Hoback Rogers & Dane Rogers 

 December 5, 6, 7, 12 & 13 2025

Featuring:
  • Evan Beckmeyer
  • Elias Dean
  • Micheal Kiser

Patrick Barlow, writer of the Broadway and West End hit The 39 Steps, has retold Charles Dickens’ holiday classic, A Christmas Carol. This thrilling adaptation uses only five actors to bring Dickens’ most beloved characters to life. From Scrooge and Tiny Tim to Bob Cratchit and Mrs. Fezziwig, Barlow’s A Christmas Carol uses nothing more than some simple props, fresh physicality, and the power of imagination to convey this timeless story of redemption. Witness Scrooge’s transformation from a stingy miser to a man who generously celebrates the spirit of the season all year long, in this highly theatrical adaptation.

It’s NOT your grandparents’ Christmas Carol.

DTG is pleased to announce the cast of LIGHT SENSITIVE by Jim Geoghan

  • Frank Maranje as Tom Hanratty

  • Kerry Simpson as Edna Miles

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!

Thomas Hanratty, lifelong resident of Hell’s Kitchen and once the most dangerous white cab driver in New York, was blinded eight years ago in a drunken accident and is fading into a routine of self pity and alcohol. His bartender and only friend is moving to Vermont with his girlfriend, but finds it difficult to abandon Tom. He recruits a slightly handicapped volunteer reader who battles her way through Tom’s shell. By the second act, they are falling in love. His buddy returns with tales of his “Christmas from hell” in Vermont, and doubt arises as to who will hold the number one position in Tom’s life.
