A Christmas Carol December 17, 18, 19, 2009

By Jim Day

For the fourth year in a row, Liberty Productions will present Charles Dickens Classic A Christmas Carol live on stage at Francis Howell Central High School Auditorium on Thursday and Friday, December 17th and 18th at 7 p.m., and on Saturday, December 19th at 2 p.m. and again at 7 p.m. (Francis Howell Central High School is located at 5199 Highway N., in St. Charles, MO, 63304.)

Liberty Productions is a community theater group that has been providing family-friendly entertainment for eight years.  Past plays have included The Boys Next Door, I Remember Momma, Father of the Bride, and Hound of the Baskervilles.

Liberty Productions started as an outreach ministry of Liberty Christian Church in O'Fallon, MO back in 2000 according to Dave Wilson, this years’ Director. According to Wilson, “We’ve grown from a small cast to over 45 people, including cast members from other churches, in some 60 roles in the play with the expressed purpose of the ministry being to provide quality family friendly entertainment and give people an opportunity to hear a brief Gospel message at the end of the play.” Wilson continued by stating, “Our plays provide an excellent opportunity to bring friends and family members to enjoy a great show and hear the Gospel message in a non-threatening environment. What better way to share the good news of Jesus Christ than through a play about the redemption of Ebenezer Scrooge.”

All performances are free and open to the public with seating on a first-come, first-serve basis. However, due to limited seating, tickets for all performances are recommended and those with tickets will be admitted prior to those without tickets. I highly recommend that folks secure their admission tickets as soon as possible. For tickets, directions or more information visit Liberty Production’s website at www.LibertyProductions.org or call Dave Wilson at (636) 734-7870 or (314) 581-1382.
