You asked for a recap of this weekend’s benefit and here it is, straight from the horse’s mouth (the horse being Chris Taylor, Spokane Civic Theatre’s Director of Education for the Academy):

Charles Dickens Presents: A Christmas Carol was a success. The response from the children and the parents was overwhelmingly positive, from the first day of rehearsal all the way up to the final performance. It was a pure joy to watch these children grow and mature during this process, and an even greater joy to see their beaming faces after the performance. They did a fantastic job.
