The Cast of A Christmas Carol

Hillbarn Theatre of Foster City, a company known for its rousing, inventively produced musicals, stages the musical version of the perennially holiday favorite, A Christmas Carol.  Unfortunately, many problems abound in this latest offering – many technical and some in the rendering of dance and song – all resulting in a highly energetic, definitely sincere, but surprisingly disappointing outing.
