Zebulon Kunkowski
Experience: I was in a spring play in kindergarten, and I was in several roles in the more recent Wizard of Oz. Funny story, I was actually cast in a different production of A Christmas Carol during this one, for my school, as Scrooge. It’s pretty cool because of how original (improved) it is. We found a free script on line and went with that. What is your favorite part about the Christmas Season? I definitely like how warm it is, being a very comforting time. I like the presents, but more I like the vacations my family goes on. We usually go on vacation instead of getting presents, and its really fun!

Original Creative Team

Charles Dickens was a British novelist, journalist, editor, illustrator and social commentator who wrote such beloved classic novels as Oliver Twist, A Christmas Carol, Nicholas Nickleby, David Copperfield, A Tale of Two Cities and Great Expectations

Dickens is remembered as one of the most important and influential writers of the 19th century. Among his accomplishments, he has been lauded for providing a stark portrait of the Victorian-era underclass, helping to bring about social change.

On December 19, 1843, Dickens published A Christmas Carol. The book features the timeless protagonist Ebenezer Scrooge, a curmudgeonly old miser, who, with the help of ghosts, finds the Christmas spirit. 

Dickens penned the book in just six weeks, beginning in October and finishing just in time for the holiday celebrations. The novel was intended as a social criticism, to bring attention to the hardships faced by England’s poorer classes. 

The book was a roaring success, selling more than 6,000 copies upon publication. Readers in England and America were touched by the book’s empathetic emotional depth; one American entrepreneur reportedly gave his employees an extra day’s holiday after reading it. Despite literary criticism, the book remains one of Dickens’ most well-known and beloved works.
