Boo Humbug

Its Christmastime in Skary, Indiana, but the holiday season has been hijacked by maverick director Lois Stepaphanopolis as she attempts to bring her horror-ific vision of A Christmas Carol to life. But the holly-decked path from page to stage is a thorny one, as Lois attempts to rally her skeptical cast, including new father Wolfe Boone, and then she learns that her reluctant marketing director, Alfred Tennison, is truly a Christmas Scrooge. Alfreds grassroots marketing plan proves more than successful as the buzz builds that Skary should anticipate an overflowing audience for their opening night but a crucial miscommunication leaves the visiting theatergoers expecting of a very different Christmas production. As chaos ensues, can the actors pull off an improv miracle and can the Skary community convince their own Scrooge to embrace the true meaning of Christmas?From the Hardcover edition.
