Eddie is a young actor, fresh out of Juilliard and ready to make his mark on the American Theatre. His dreams are within reach… sort of. First he’s just going to do this regional production of A Christmas Carol. As the years pass, Eddie finds himself back at the same local theatre, over and over and over again. Much remains the same: the play, the stage manager, the green room — though Eddie finds himself in different costumes as he ages through the male roles over the course of his career.
Anna Ouyang Moench’s comedic and moving new play is a love letter to actors, artists and dreamers of all professions who make sacrifices large and small in service of their work… and ultimately wonder whether it was worth it.
“The theatre has plucked your heart out of your chest and placed it on the stage. To return your heart to your body, you must find your way to the stage, again and again. The only place you feel like a human being. It’s a terrible curse. A terrible gift.” Scrooge, Your Local Theater Presents: A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens, Again
