A Twisted Christmas Carol

Lonny Chapman Group Repertory Theatre
10900 Burbank Blvd. North Hollywood

It's Christmas Eve in a small west Texas town and cantankerous barbecue joint owner Buford Johnson gets in an argument with his wife, Darla, tells her he's skipping Christmas, he storms out of the restaurant, goes four wheeling in his pickup, gets hit by a twister, rolls his truck and goes into a coma. He comes back in his dream where he's visited by ex-business partner, Hank Walker, who plays the ghost of Christmas past, present, and future.

"...Taking Charles Dickens' perennial holiday classic and subverting it with Texas-based references and style, Group Repertory Theatre's world premiere of Phil Olson's A Twisted Christmas Carol blends dark comedy and fine acting into a tasty holiday treat."

"...Phil Olson's scripts are ALWAYS funny, and this one is no exception. They give us a look into small town America, and genuine kindness at the root of intention. Great directing by Doug Engalla, as always. Chris Winfield, again as always, gives us great set design. Great performances from all the cast, with newcomer to the Group Rep Christian Land adding spark and gumption to Bubba's character. Lights, sound, costumes and stage managing are wonderful."
