The Island Players present Twice Upon a Christmas
to
St. Simons Casino Building - Library/Theatre 550 Beachview Drive, Saint Simons Island, Georgia 31522
The Island Players’ holiday production “Twice Upon a Christmas” is a whimsical take on two classic Christmas stories: “The Gift of the Magi” and “Scrooge Has Left the Building.”
The Gift of the Magi is a classic Christmas story of love and sacrifice. It was written by O. Henry and first published in the New York Sunday World in December 1905. The original story is about Jim and Della, an impoverished young couple who make sacrifices in order to buy each other meaningful Christmas gifts.
Scrooge Has Left the Building is a play that takes place at Christmas time. An old man sits in his sitting room eating porridge. Marley, a ghost, bursts in and begins to rattle his chains, scaring the man half to death. Marley claims he has come to save the man from a horrible fate, but the man points out that he is not Scrooge. The play humorously depicts the events that happened on the night before Marley and his spectral friends met Scrooge.
