*FROM THE PRODUCERS*

What a joy it has been to collaborate with State College Community Theatre and this terrific cast! I’m grateful to all who have helped us create what we hope will be an annual tradition at the State Theatre.

Special thanks to Rachel Charney, our fearless Stage Manager, David Gritzner, Executive Director for SCCT, the entire production staff, and most of all, Jill A. Brighton, who created the amazing dances.

And we thank you, the audience, for supporting local theatre – we hope you come back often!

Merry Christmas!

RICHARD BIEVER

DIRECTOR OF “SCROOGE”/EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, THE STATE THEATRE

Wow. Its been a year since SCCT presented it’s first holiday show at this beautiful theatre, and we’re so excited to be back and able to collaborate with The State Theatre this time around. We hope to make a holiday show an annual tradition.

SCCT is not just a summer theatre anymore, and you are going to see us a lot more during the course of the year bringing outstanding theatre to our new home here on College Avenue. I could not ask for a more warm welcome from Richard Biever and the Staff and Board of The State Theatre. We are more motivated than ever to do great work here for your enjoyment.

There is so much exceptional talent in this show – and I sincerely hope you enjoy it as much as it has been a joy putting it together. All, including you the audience, are part of this community, and I’m grateful that we all can enjoy this special presentation.

Happy Holidays!
