Re: A Christmas Carol Performance

On Friday, Dec. 18^th the seventh grade will present A Christmas Carol, a play by Charles Dickens, to the school students and staff. We have been scheduled to perform after morning-prayer  (8:30 a.m.) and the elective drama class  performance of A Charlie Brown Christmas. I estimate the time of our performance to be about 9:45 a.m. The play will last about 45 minutes. The seventh grade students are responsible for their costumes and props. I have planned a dress rehearsal for Thursday at 9:40 a.m. You are invited to join us for either or both performances.
