THEATRE + COMEDY

Bright, festive and GAY! Unhinged Productions presents A Queer Carol, by Joe Godfrey (pictured). Directed by Joe Angel Babb.  A refreshing contemporary take on the classic story.  Running November 26 through December 20, at Frenetic Theater 5102 Navigation Blvd. Houston 77011.

A contemporary gay re-telling of the Dickens classic that delves into the downward spiral of Ben Scrooge and Jake Marley, who were partners in life as well as their interior design business. With Marilyn Monroe as the Ghost of Christmas Past, and Bob Cratchit's partner Tim living with HIV, there are twists aplenty.

And yet, this honest and moving adaptation remains surprisingly faithful to the spirit of the original with its sense of wonder and Christmas spirit.
