"The Bench" is a refreshingly new Christmas show - it takes place on a mall bench where 2 husbands are waiting for their wives... and all sorts of interesting characters come into the mix.
We have photos here |

It sounds interesting. The pictures are cute. Who wrote it? Who holds the rights?

It was written by Larry Larson & Eddie Lee. But I can't remember who holds the rights. Google isnt much help either. I'll have to check - I may have Larry's email around here somewhere too - he was very approachable.

THE CHRISTMAS CAPER 2 m, 2 f, 6 kids roles with flexible casting
Several orphans and some homeless kids they picked up along the way are hiding out from the unscrupulous matron of a childrens home. A burglar dressed as Santa Claus dupes a couple of them into helping him break into the houses, causing the police to begin looking for the children as well. Who could possibly save the runaways and set things straight? Ahh, you know who.
Happy Holidays!

"A Charles Dickens Christmas Carol, A Traveling Travesty in Two Tumultuous ActS"
While I am sure French can get you a copy, the actual publishing house for the show is BAKER PLAYS.
The play is a blast. I love slapstick comedy and farce and this play is both. And as to the issue of the shortness of the play, the script is quite flexible and all sorts of caroling and business can easily make it as long as you want

Jim, both times I did it, i leased through French. Both are quoting it at $60 a performance (though Baker shows it as just "A Dicken's Christmas Carol." vs Traveling..... etc.) So, I guess they both have it.. |

If you have a large cast with lots of kids and want a big musical production, then "Scrooge" (adapted from the Albert Finney movie) has always been a audience favorite for us. And it is lots of fun too.
