Impromptu Players mix up the holidays with high-energy ‘Christmas gumbo’ of a comedy

By Ashlyn Little The Impromptu Players are shaking up the holiday season with a different kind of Christmas comedy beginning this Friday. The play, titled “Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!)”, promises to take audiences on a rollercoaster ride through beloved Christmas classics, worldly holiday traditions, and more. Written by Michael Carleton, James Fitzgerald and John K. Alvarez, the production is directed by Maria Sanchez and assistant directed by Scott Hollis. “I wanted to do something different this year,” Sanchez said. “Something audiences wouldn’t expect and might not have ever seen before.” The show opens with a narrator reading the introduction to Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.” However, the cast quickly rebels, complaining they are tired of performing the same old show year after year. From that moment, the adventure begins.
