FEZZIWIG’S FORTUNE
MONDAY, DECEMBER 19th
7:00PM
Patricia Reser Center for the Arts
by Josie Seid and Sara Jean Accuardi.
Written by local playwrights Josie Seid and Sara Jean Accuardi, this world-premiere play lifts Mr. Fezziwig from the pages of A Christmas Carol to tell a story all his own. Set after the jubilant Christmas ball where we meet young Scrooge’s benevolent employer in Dickens’s tale, this story looks past Fezziwig’s merry smile to find a man who may be in need of a Christmas miracle all of his own. Fezziwig’s Fortune is an origin story about family, forgiveness, and the importance of what ties us together.
“Fezziwig’s Fortune is technically a prequel to A Christmas Carol, but that description is both accurate and inadequate. The play is something more… something sadder, subtler, and more beautiful… Fezziwig’s Fortune is a light unto itself.” – Oregon ArtsWatch
