I saw his performance in 2006 and 2007 at ACT and I thought he was one of the best Scrooge's I had ever seen. My top favorite is Alastair Sim in the 1951 British' film "Scrooge". I watch it every year to get into the Christmas spirit. My favorite Christmas musical is the Leslie Bruisse's 1970 film musical "Scrooge" starring Albert Finney. Eddy of course has to see "White Christmas" with Bing every Christmas Day. Several years ago a theatre company in Las Vegas transferred the musical "Scrooge" to the stage up in the Sun City Casino starring Boyd Gaines. It was a disaster. I could not believe what they did to this charming musical. Poor Boyd tried to get out of his contract but he just had to do it every night. I liked your piece on James Carpenter in the Examiner.
