LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL
ONYX’S ‘CHRISTMAS CAROL’
GOES TO THE DICKENS
You may know Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.” But do you know how Dickens himself presented his beloved holiday tale?
You can find out this weekend as actor Byron Tidwell brings the author to life in a one-man show, using Dickens’ own performance notes as the inspiration for his account of Ebenezer Scrooge’s transformation from, well, Scrooge, to a jolly holiday celebrant.
As one reviewer noted, Tidwell “brings the crackling vitality and detail to the challenge that Dickens himself did as a novelist and speaker.”
His one-man “Christmas Carol” plays at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. at the Onyx Theatre, 953 E. Sahara Ave.; additional performances are 8 p.m. Dec. 26-27 and 2 p.m. Dec. 28.
For tickets ($20 general admission, $15 students, seniors and military), call 702-732-7225 or visit www.onyxtheatre.com.
