Theatre can change the world one person at a time. Through an education in the arts, we learn skills in processing real world situations while building a foundation of empathy. At ATC, we strive to provide these opportunities so that all children may find their niche and a place where their skills, talents, and interests may grow and excel. Theater productions, and making them quality shows that include all the elements of true theatre, was our goal and mission from the start. When kids look at what the professionals do, they want to reach for Broadway. ATC makes those goals a reality.

Auntie Scrooge: A Backwards Christmas Carol - Part 1
It's the Christmas season and time for our FIRST episode in the revamped ATC podcast series, Radio Theatre!
A comical Christmas Carol--in reverse! Auntie Scrooge: A Backwards Christmas Carol is similar to adaptations of Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol', but a bizarre inversion of the tale of Scrooge's journey from miser to nice guy.
Set in modern times, this tells the tale of Auntie Scrooge, a kindly, old great-great-great-great-grand-niece of the reformed Ebenezer Scrooge. Auntie runs an ice cream company in Connecticut--full of singing cows and traditional goodies, but she runs afoul of conniving underlings who seek to replace egg nog with the Taiwanese tea, milk & tapioca beverage, Boba--also known as "Bubble Tea."
In the Scrooge family tradition, Auntie is visited by Marley's ghost--but not Jacob Marley. Instead, it's the late reggae star BOB Marley--in dreadlocks and a Santa suit, dragging gift boxes and chains behind him. He explains how tough it is to be a saint, hoping to save Auntie from future "compassion fatigue."
Don't miss the fun and laughter as Auntie Scrooge brings you some holiday spirit this Christmas season!
Presented by the Fall 2024 Radio Theatre Class.
