For the delight of audiences aged 5 to 105, Czechoslovak-American Marionette Theater offers "A Christmas Carol, Oy! Hanukkah, Merry Kwanzaa (Happy Ramadan)." The show is an adaptation of Dickens' classic with Old World accents and New World inclusiveness. Adapted and directed by Vít Hořejš, it features over 30 puppets by Milos Kasal backed up by a live chorus: Czech, English, Hebrew & Swahili songs are performed by an acapella choir of Judith Barnes and Hayden DeWitt.

"A delightful holiday hodgepodge that still hews closely to Dickens's tale and also has contemporary humor. Mr. Horejs's 75-minute unorthodox mix is always fun," Laurel Graeber (New York Times)
