Jonathan Kruk | Jonathan Kruk will do a reading a "A Christmas Carol." / Facebook
Jonathan Kruk, a master storyteller, will be performing a reading of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" live on YouTube on Dec. 6.
McCarl Coverlet Gallery at St. Vincent College asks residents to register online with a suggested $10 donation, according to a press release. All donations will go to the gallery.
But this reading won't be the only show put on virtually by the gallery.
Every Friday leading up to Christmas, a haunted holiday tale will be presented.
“Every Christmas,” Lauren Churilla, McCarl Gallery curator, said in the press release, ”we look forward to the spooky and fascinating tale of Ebenezer Scrooge and his encounters with the ghosts of Christmases past, present and future. However, Dickens’ spooky tale wasn’t the first ghost story to be read around a Christmas fire.”
This year, the series will include “The Tapestried Chamber,” by Sir Walter Scott; “The Haunted Rock,” by W.W. Fenn; “How Peter Parley Laid a Ghost;" and “The Ghost Summons,” by Ada Buisson.
