NETC Theatre Club presents Charles Dicken's classic 'A Christmas Carol' | |
|
Northeastern Technical College (NETC) Theatre Club held its annual performance of Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol" on Thursday evening, November 21. The production featured NETC students and special guests appearing from the community. The performance was held at NETC's Cheraw Campus.
Lisa Morman-Patterson, NETC Theatre Instructor, directed the production.
"A Christmas Carol" is the timeless story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserable elderly man who was visited by the ghost of his former business partner Jacob Marley and the spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come. By the end of the play, Scrooge's heart softened, and he transformed into a kinder, gentler man.
The Theatre Club will also be performing at the Blumenthal Theater next week to a sold out crowd.
For More Information about the NETC Theatre Club and how to attend or be a part of the next production, call 800-921-7399 for more information.

Your cooperation with these policies is crucial to keeping our campus secure and orderly. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don’t hesitate to reach out to campus security or HR.
